<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Hello<BR><BR>I
am doing a project on using GO in a search engine and have a question about
<BR>the data model in the XML-file.<BR>I'd like to expand GO-terms found in the
XML-file. (e.g. given the term<BR>'anti-toxin' I'd like to retrieve all children
of anti-toxin recursively.)<BR>But as far as I can see, a term in the XML-file
only incorporates<BR>information about its parents, not its children. Is there
any way to go in<BR>the leaf-direction in the XML file?<BR><BR>I guess the
different GO browsers have its origin from the flatfile. This is<BR>due to the
fact that one can keep track of the parents and children of the<BR>term in mind,
by the indentation? Or have I missed out some structural<BR>information in the
XML-file?<BR><BR>Thanks in advance<BR>Anders
