Hi,

There is a Perl API available for working with MySQL GO databases in the go-dev CVS repository (the entire CVS tree can be downloaded in one go, although this gives you a lot of stuff you probably won't need). There is further documentation to be found at the Gene Ontology Software Group site).

There are also a couple of scripts available on the GO FTP site which work with the flat file format. They may give you some idea of how to proceed, should you need to stick with flat files for whatever reason.

Hope this helps,

Tim

Update: Turns out, the Perl API includes a module specifically for parsing GO flat files. Have fun :-)

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
