Why do I get a different set of annotations when I look at the same gene/protein in AmiGO?
There are several ways in which AmiGO and QuickGO differ in their display of annotations as follows: (i) Update cycle; QuickGO updates with GO terms every day and with GO annotations every week, so for GO terms QuickGO should only be, at most, one day behind AmiGO and for GO annotations no more than one week. The dates on which the GO terms and annotations were last updated in QuickGO are displayed on the front page of QuickGO (under the heading ‘QuickGO Contents’); (ii) AmiGO does not provide electronic (IEA-coded) annotation whereas QuickGO does; (iii) QuickGO does not display ISS-evidenced annotations from external groups whereas AmiGO does (this is something UniProtKB-GOA is looking into providing in the future once we have assessed the quality of such annotation); (iv) Annotations from external groups are only incorporated into QuickGO if the external sequence identifiers can be mapped to valid (neither secondary or deleted) UniProtKB accession numbers; (v) Annotations are only di
