The Cell Cycle Ontology (CCO) integrates and manages knowledge about the cellular components involved in cell cycle execution and regulation. A number of knowledge representation formalisms, such as OBO, OWL, and RDF are used to capture and represent the knowledge about cell cycle. This knowledge is assembled from a diverse set of already existing resources (such as GO, UniProt, IntAct, GOA, NCBI taxonomy). The integration of the knowledge in a single resource gives an overall picture of the cell cycle process difficult to obtain otherwise.

The following cartoon depicts a bit of knowledge currently stored in CCO for the specific protein SWI4_YEAST. This local neighborhood also shows the type of relations attached to a protein and the different terms (e.g. intracellular localization, interactions, associated process, post-translational modifications, etc).
