quickgo-database
Query the QuickGO and Evidence & Conclusion Ontology (ECO) REST API. Use this when you need to map genes to biological processes, molecular functions, or cellular components, find genes associated with a specific pathway/GO term, or explore the Gene Ontology hierarchy. Do not use for querying drug targets (use OpenTargets) or mechanistic signaling pathway diagrams (use KEGG).

# QuickGO Database Skill
GO (Gene Ontology) annotations are one of the main ways to label a gene's
function. QuickGO is a fast, web-based browser for the GO and Evidence &
Conclusion Ontology (ECO), maintained by the Gene Ontology Annotation (GOA)
group at EMBL-EBI.
It provides a centralised resource to explore the functional attributes of gene
products (proteins, RNA, and complexes). It is a primary tool for functional
annotation mapping since it allows you to link a gene (e.g., USH2A) to its
specific biological processes (e.g. sensory perception of light stimulus),
molecular functions, and cellular components.
