Table 1 Statistics of GO annotations. The data in parentheses along with Yeast (or Human) is the number of proteins in that dataset. First column: \(|\mathcal {T}|\) is the total number of distinct GO terms used for empirical study, and the data in parentheses is the number of GO annotations of all the proteins. [3,10) characterizes the number of terms associated with at least 3 and less than 10 proteins; [10,30) represents the number of terms associated with at least 10 and less than 30 proteins; and ≥30 includes the terms associated with at least 30 proteins, Avg ±Std is the average number of annotations of a protein and its standard deviation. The root GO term in each sub-ontology (BP, CC and MF) are not included
