2.Description and objectives
Focus and Purpose
The PSI-MOD working group is composed of academic and government researchers, as well as software developers. The main goal of the PSI-PI working group is to develop and maintain PSI-MOD, an ontology for protein residue modifications.
Current projects of the PSI-PI working group are:
- Ongoing maintenance and enhancement of PSI-MOD.
- Collaborate with resources that uses PSI-MOD to optimise its usage.
- Work together with other similar and complementary resources
Goals/Milestones
Goal 1: Revisit the set of fields and information types necessary to curate PSI-MOD.
Goal 2: Clean and update the current version
Goal 3: Revisit the curation platform (modus vivendi, curation rules, update policies).
Goal 4: Maintain and update PSI-MOD Ontology
