PHI-Canto: Annotating a gene-for-gene interaction
Channel: PHI-base
Date: 2023-03-29

This tutorial demonstrates how to annotate a gene-for-gene interaction between a pathogen and a host using PHI-Canto. The tutorial includes instructions on creating related annotations, such as Gene Ontology (GO) annotations and Disease name annotations.

00:00 Introduction
00:33 GO Biological Process annotation
02:22 GO Molecular Function annotation
04:42 Gene-for-gene phenotype (wild type)
08:19 Gene-for-gene phenotype (mutant host)
13:45 Gene-for-gene phenotype (mutant pathogen)
18:25 Disease name annotation

PHI-Canto is an online annotation tool used for curation of peer-reviewed literature on pathogen-host interactions.

The tool is free to use, and can be used by any researcher who wants to curate a publication into PHI-base, the Pathogen-Host Interactions Database (http://www.phi-base.org).

If you want to curate a publication to be included in PHI-base, use the following link:

If you want to try using PHI-Canto without submitting data to PHI-base, we have a demo version of the tool available:

PHI-Canto was developed by the PHI-base team at Rothamsted Research, in collaboration with the PomBase team at the University of Cambridge. PomBase are the creators of Canto, the annotation tool that PHI-Canto was derived from.
