Numbers of newt and zebrafish proteins annotated to preselected sub nodes of GO:0008150: biological process. To the GO term sub nodes GO:0008219: cell death, GO:0016477: cell migration, GO:0030154: cell differentiation, GO:0007049: cell cycle, GO:0000278: mitotic cell cycle, GO:0040007: growth, GO:0007275: development, GO:0008283: cell proliferation, GO:0051301: cell division, GO:0007166: cell surface receptor linked signal transduction, GO:0030522: intracellular receptor-mediated signaling pathway, GO:0050851: antigen receptor-mediated signaling pathway, GO:0042060: wound healing, GO:0006936: muscle contraction and GO:0008015: circulation, the number of proteins within daughter nodes was determined for newt and zebrafish and compared to the number of proteins deposited in the GOA database. The ratio of abundance was determined by dividing the number of annotated proteins within a daughter node to the total number of proteins annotated to GO: 0008150: biological process.
