 The Gene Ontology (GO)  [@Ashburner2000; @GO2023] is a structured vocabulary that describes gene products in the context of their associated functions. The ontology takes the form of a directed graph, where each node defines a term, and each edge represents a hierarchical relationship between the terms (the words of the vocabulary).
 
-For example, in the GO data, `GO:0090630` defines *activation of GTPase activity* and is a child of `GO:0043547`, which is a *positive regulation of GTPase activity* which in turn is a child of `GO:0051345` representing a *positive regulation of hydrolase activity*.

-Gene association files (GAF) are text files used to annotate an organism's gene products with Gene Ontology terms, associating a function to a gene product. For example, a GAF file connects a gene product label, such as `ZC3H11B`, with multiple GO terms, such as `GO:0046872` or `GO:0016973`. The complete human genome GAF representation contains 288,575 associations of 19,606 gene symbols over 18,680 GO terms.

 Web-based tools designed to visualize and filter gene ontology data include `AmiGO` [@AmiGO] and `QuickGO` [@QuickGO]. Command line tools like `goatools` [@goatools] support GO term lineage visualization. R packages like `topGO` [@topGO] implement GO structure visualizations of enriched GO terms. We are unaware of locally installable software that specifically allows for interactive filtering and visualization of gene ontology derived on gene lists.

 GeneScape is distributed with prebuilt databases for human and mouse genomes. For other organisms, users need to download the GAF files from the Gene Ontology website and run the command:
 
 ```
-genescape build --gaf mydata.gaf --index mydata.index.gz 
+genescape build --gaf mydata.gaf.gz --index mydata.index.gz 
 ```
 
 The `build` command will create a database that can then be used for all subsequent analyses with the software. Users should consult the [GeneScape documentation][docs] for up-to-date details.
