Data typeItem
ExampleSerine hydroxymethyltransferase CTL0691 (Q21168859) has property increased expression in (P1911) and statement elementary body (Q51955212) with qualifier relative to reticulate body (Q51955198)

Motivation

Chlamydia is an organism that takes several forms - an infectious form called the Elementary Body and a noninfectious form called the Reticulate Body. Certain proteins can be expressed in either form, however it is important for researchers to know which form produces the highest expression for a given protein (especially when the protein is present in both forms).I propose we create a new property "relative to" which will be used as a qualifier to explain ambiguous claims like increased expression in (P1911). In addition to using the claims expressed in (P5572) to describe whether or not a protein is expressed, I also need to use increased expression in (P1911) and clarify with "relative to" which form produces a higher expression.
