Curator prediction of NOT kinase activity

[Midori Harris]

Hi,

I think there's no doubt whatsoever that this information should be 
captured. The question is what to put for reference and evidence. The best 
evidence code is probably TAS, although one could possibly also make a 
case for ISS (note that IC is restricted to inferences from other GO 
annotations, so isn't suitable).

For a reference, one possibility is to add an item to the GO_REF 
collection; then there would be an ID to plug into the file.
