Gene Ontology Causal Activity Modeling (GO-CAM) moves beyond GO annotations to structured descriptions of biological functions and systems. Nat Genet. 2019 Oct;51(10):1429-1433. DOI: [10.1038/s41588-019-0500-1](https://doi.org/10.1038/s41588-019-0500-1){:target="blank"} \[[abstract](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31548717/){:target="blank"} \| [full text](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7012280/pdf/nihms-1067180.pdf){:target="blank"}\]


If you produce tools and/or services that use GO data, the user should be provided with the GO release date and DOI along with the results (e.g. "2023-01-01" and "DOI: [10.5281/zenodo.7504797](https://dx.doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7504797){:target="blank"}").

## Citing data from downloads

If you wish to cite data provided by the Gene Ontology knowledgebase, either from AmiGO or the files downloaded from the GO website, please state the release date and/or version number of the data, preferably both; e.g. "2023-01-01" and "[10.5281/zenodo.7504797](https://dx.doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7504797){:target="blank"}". Both annotation and ontology data may change over time, and to reproduce the results of an analysis, it is important that the same initial GO data is used.

## Citing data from AmiGO

The data release can be found in the [AmiGO](https://amigo.geneontology.org/amigo){:target="blank"} page footer on the right-hand side. To cite the annotations of individual database groups please see the GO publications list.

## GO logo

If you intend to use the logo on your website, please include a link to the GO home page, https://geneontology.org. Please [contact the GO Helpdesk](http://help.geneontology.org) if you need a larger or higher resolution version. The logo is subject to our use and license.

The GO logo is available in four sizes. For reuse, please do not hotlink images, but download them instead (e.g. right click the appropriate image and size, then select "Save Link As"):

## Best practices for linking to GO entities
GO uses persistent uniform resource locator (PURLs) for all the objects it describes. If you use or provide links to the following entities, please ensure you are using PURLs. Examples:
* GO terms: https://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0022008
* GO_REFs: https://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go/references/0000015
* GO-CAM models: https://model.geneontology.org/65c57c3400001018
* GO ontology (versions)
* current: https://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go/go.owl
* snapshot: https://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go/snapshot/go.owl
* dated release: https://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go/releases/2024-01-17/go.owl
