See #12540 and cmungall/capital-offence#1

Pathway

  • GO:0033499 ! galactose catabolic process via UDP-galactose [SYNONYM: "galactose breakdown via UDP-galactose" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "galactose catabolism via UDP-galactose" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "galactose degradation via UDP-galactose" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "Leloir Pathway " (related)]
  • GO:0061688 ! glycolytic process via Entner-Doudoroff Pathway

Complex

  • GO:0000813 ! ESCRT I complex [SYNONYM: "Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport" (broad)]

  • GO:0000815 ! ESCRT III complex [SYNONYM: "Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport" (broad)]
  • GO:0030964 ! NADH dehydrogenase complex [SYNONYM: " Complex I" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "NADH dehydrogenase complex (plastoquinone)" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "NADH dehydrogenase complex (quinone)" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "NADH dehydrogenase complex (ubiquinone)" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "NADH:plastoquinone reductase complex" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "plastid NADH dehydrogenase complex (plastoquinone)" (narrow)]

  • GO:1990469 ! Rhino-Deadlock-Cutoff Complex [SYNONYM: "RDC complex" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "rhi-del-cuff complex" (exact)]

Greek alphabet

  • GO:0086096 ! adenylate cyclase-inhibiting adrenergic receptor signaling pathway involved in heart process [SYNONYM: "cardiac adrenergic receptor signaling pathway via inhibition of adenylate cyclase activity" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "G-inhibitory-coupled Beta 2AR signaling pathway involved in heart process" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "Gi-coupled adrenergic receptor signaling pathway involved in heart process" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "Gi-coupled Beta 2-AR signaling pathway involved in heart process" (exact)]
  • GO:1990711 ! Beta -catenin-ICAT complex [SYNONYM: "CTNNB1-CTNNBIP1 complex" (exact)]

We use "beta-catenin" in other places

  • GO:0032093 ! SAM domain binding [SYNONYM: "Sterile Alpha Motif domain binding" (exact)]

this should be "sterile alpha morif"

Note I do not include a report for Delta, as we have so many, this is probably OK nomenclature

Polymerase

  • GO:0061427 ! negative regulation of ceramide biosynthetic process by negative regulation of transcription from RNA Polymerase II promoter
  • GO:1990113 ! RNA Polymerase I assembly [SYNONYM: "DNA-directed RNA polymerase I complex assembly" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "RNA Polymerase I complex assembly" (exact)]

  • GO:1990115 ! RNA Polymerase III assembly [SYNONYM: "DNA-directed RNA polymerase III complex assembly" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "RNA Polymerase III complex assembly" (exact)]

we tend to use "polymerase" (even though there is a protein name based argument for capitalization)

Thyroid

  • GO:1904400 ! response to Thyroid stimulating hormone
  • GO:1904401 ! cellular response to Thyroid stimulating hormone

We normally use "thyroid-stimulating hormone"

Group

  • GO:0000372 ! Group I intron splicing [SYNONYM: "mRNA splicing" (related)]
  • GO:0000373 ! Group II intron splicing [SYNONYM: "mRNA splicing" (related)]
  • GO:0000374 ! Group III intron splicing [SYNONYM: "mRNA splicing" (related)]

  • GO:0031519 ! PcG protein complex [SYNONYM: "Polycomb Group protein complex" (exact)]

it is more common for us to say "group I intron". See also the form here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_I_catalytic_intron#Catalysis

Intermediate

  • GO:0022894 ! Intermediate conductance calcium-activated potassium channel activity [SYNONYM: "IK calcium-activated potassium channel activity" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "IK KCa channels" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "intermdiate conductance KCa channels" (exact)]

  • GO:0000815 ! ESCRT III complex [SYNONYM: "Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport " (broad)]

Chemical names

There are a lot of these. There is an argument that drugs are proper names and can be capitalized, but it's still better to be consistent

  • GO:0052598 ! histamine oxidase activity [SYNONYM: "1H- Imidazole -4-ethanamine oxidase activity" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "1H- Imidazole -4-ethanamine:oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating) activity" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "histamine:oxygen oxidoreductase (deaminating) activity" (exact)]

Taxon common names

The Linnaen name is always capitalized. However, common names should not be. Offences:

  • GO:0009275 ! Gram-positive-bacterium-type cell wall [SYNONYM: "20-80nm peptidoglycan-based cell wall" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "cell wall of Gram-positive Bacteria " (exact)]

Proper names that should be capitalized

Warburg

  • GO:0004129 ! cytochrome-c oxidase activity [SYNONYM: "aa3-type cytochrome c oxidase" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "ba3-type cytochrome c oxidase" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "caa3-type cytochrome c oxidase" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "cbb3-type cytochrome c oxidase" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "complex IV (mitochondrial electron transport) activity" (related)] [SYNONYM: "cytochrome a3 activity" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "cytochrome aa3 activity" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "cytochrome c oxidase activity" (exact)] [SYNONYM: "cytochrome oxidase activity" (related)] [SYNONYM: "ferrocytochrome c oxidase" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "ferrocytochrome-c:oxygen oxidoreductase" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "indophenol oxidase" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "indophenolase" (narrow)] [SYNONYM: "NADH cytochrome c oxidase" (exact)] [SYNONYM: " warburg 's respiratory enzyme activity" (related)]

as for #12540 : those will be automatically fixed by script and are mentioned here just for tracking, correct?

I'd like to add a spellcheck command to robot that would also check for inappropriate capitalization/case:

ontodev/robot#784

We can use this ticket as a test. This isn't a super-high priority check however
