Hi Allyson,

I guess its just because that you are looking at the snapshot of data. If you retrieve the complete results set, that will be the same in terms of first three columns. Please try that and let me know if that explains...

Cheers

Hi Syed,

I'm not sure that is the reason, because even though the GO IDs *seem* identical, the GO Descriptions, as seen in the image, are all different. Indeed, when I add the unique results only flag, I get the exact same result.

Seeing as the image didn't seem to have been passed, here is a bad cut-and-paste of the table (irrespective of the unique results flag):

P32797      GO:0007049      CDC13      cell cycle
P32797     GO:0007049     CDC13     physiological process
P32797     GO:0007049     CDC13     cellular process
P32797     GO:0007049     CDC13     cellular physiological process
P32797     GO:0007049     CDC13     intracellular
P32797     GO:0007049     CDC13     cell
P32797     GO:0007049     CDC13     chromosome
P32797 GO:0007049 CDC13 intracellular non-membrane-bound organelle
P32797     GO:0007049     CDC13     non-membrane-bound organelle
P32797     GO:0007049     CDC13     intracellular organelle*

*Weirdly, when I remove the "GO Description" attribute, as I said in my first email, I get a result where the GO IDs seem to be properly displayed.

P32797      GO:0007049      CDC13
P32797     GO:0007582     CDC13
P32797     GO:0009987     CDC13
P32797     GO:0050875     CDC13
P32797     GO:0005622     CDC13
P32797     GO:0005623     CDC13
P32797     GO:0005694     CDC13
P32797     GO:0043232     CDC13
P32797     GO:0043228     CDC13
P32797     GO:0043229     CDC13

So, what do you think is going on here?

Thanks! :)

    Hi Allyson,
    I am not sure why it dint reach mart-dev earlier on. The history
    is available here:

    http://listserver.ebi.ac.uk/mailing-lists-archives/mart-dev/threads.html

    May be it never made it to the list because you were sending an
    attachment, and its not possible to send attachments to the list :)

    Anyways, I guess the reason you see many GO IDs when you select
    Description attribute is because of redundant rows against several
    Gene IDs and associated GO IDs. The best is to try UniqueRows flag
    and see if that removes the irrrelevant rows.

    Cheers
    Syed

        Hi all,

        I've just run this query on the biomart.org
        <http://biomart.org> <http://biomart.org> martview application:


        <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
        <!DOCTYPE Query>

        <Query  virtualSchemaName = "default" formatter = "TSV" header
        = "0" uniqueRows = "0" count = "" datasetConfigVersion = "0.5" >
<Dataset name = "uniprot" interface = "default" >



                       <Filter name = "gene_name" value = "cdc13"/>
                       <Attribute name = "sptr_ac" />
                       <Attribute name = "go_id" />
                       <Attribute name = "gene_name" />



                       <Attribute name = "go_name" />
               </Dataset>
        </Query>

        And I get the attached result (screenshot). I may be extremely
        dense here, but why are all of the GO IDs the same for the
        first few GO descriptions? When I just choose GO ID (and not
        also GO description in the Attributes section, I get a variety
        of GO IDs.

        Anyone know what I'm doing wrong in querying or interpreting?

        Many thanks!
