For proteins this is reference to the PSI 007 * Molecular Interaction ontology (MI) of covalent sequence modifications. 008 * For nucleic acids, there is currently no recommended standard CV. 009 *<p> 010 * <b>Usage</b>: Whenever possible the most specific term in the ontology should be used. 011 * For example PSI-MI term o-phospho-serine should be used instead of the 012 * parent "phosphorylated residue" when annotating a phosphorylation at a 013 * known serine amino acid. 014 * @see <a href="http://www.psidev.info">PSI Dev</a> 015 * @see <a href="http://www.ebi.ac.uk/ontology-lookup/browse.do?ontName=MI&termId=MI%3A0252&termName=biological%20feature">PSI Biological Feature</a> 016 * @see <a href="http://rna-mdb.cas.albany.edu/RNAmods/"> Candidate RNA modification CV</a> 017 */ 018public interface SequenceModificationVocabulary extends ControlledVocabulary 019{ 020}
