Search for descriptions corresponding to a list of go terms

Hello,

I have a list of GO terms and I want to know for each of them (1) what they correspond to and (2) are they classified in "molecular function", "cellular component" or "biological process"?

How can I do this?

Thank you for your help.

Here is a sub-sample:

GO:0003862
GO:0000104
GO:0070206
GO:0008927
GO:0032508

From the GO FAQ

How do I get the term names for my list of GO ids?

You can use the YeastMine Analyze tool available at SGD to retrieve the GO term names for each ID. This works for all organisms; the entire GO is loaded in YeastMine and the GO is not organism-specific.

  1. Go to the Analyze tool on YeastMine
  2. In the Select Type pull down, select GO Term
  3. Enter your GO ids or upload a list in the full format (GO:0016020, GO:0016301…)
  4. Click on Create List. The tool offers several options to download the list.
