GO Analysis Y-Axis
In proteomics, GO (Gene Ontology) analysis is a method used to comprehensively describe gene attributes and the functions of gene products. In a GO analysis result graph, the x-axis typically represents GO terms, while the y-axis usually indicates the number of genes or the enrichment ratio. The interpretation of these axes is essential for understanding gene function and its role within an organism, and should be guided by the specific annotations provided in the graph. GO analysis is categorized into three main domains: Biological Process, Molecular Function, and Cellular Component.
1. Biological Process
This component describes the biological processes that gene products are involved in within an organism, such as the synthesis of organic compounds and energy metabolism.
2. Molecular Function
This component details the molecular-level functions of gene products, including protein structures and enzyme activities.
3. Cellular Component
This component outlines the locations of gene products within cellular structures, such as the cell membrane and nucleus.
