Abstract
To efficiently represent the protein annotation framework and to integrate all the existing data representations into a standardized protein data specification for the bioinformatics community, the protein ontology need to be represented in a format that not enforce semantic constraints on protein data, but can also facilitate reasoning tasks on protein data using semantic query algebra. This motivates the representation of Protein Ontology (PO) Model in Web Ontology Language (OWL). In this paper we briefly discuss the usage of OWL in achieving the objectives of Protein Ontology Project. We provide a brief overview of Protein Ontology (PO) to start with. In the later sections discuss why OWL was an ideal choice for PO Development.
