This is a student talk presented as part of a Knowledge Engineering course summarizing a synthesis paper on bioinformatics and protein ontologies. The talk introduces the protein phosphatase family and discusses the development of a phosphatase ontology to classify protein sequences. It then describes the materials and methods used for bioinformatics analysis of protein phosphatases, including extracting phosphatase gene products, performing domain analysis, and identifying class membership. Finally, it discusses translating the ontology into OWL and loading protein instances to systematically classify proteins into phosphatase classes.
