[martta95]

Hi, I have GO number, eg. GO:0003676 GO:0015074 GO:0005515 GO:0006996 GO:0003677 GO:0005634 GO:0006355 GO:0003700 GO:0003824 GO:0030154 GO:0043565 GO:0044212 GO:0005198 GO:0006886 GO:0016192 GO:0030117 GO:0006873 GO:0008308 GO:0016021 GO:0055085

I would like to get descriptions of the list go numbers
eg. GO:0000811 GINS complex What tool could I use?

Use the search bar on the footer of Intermine (Which InterMine is for you?) and then select the most appropriate specific tool.

Ontologies are mostly shared in obo format. There are different libraries which lets you explore this data. You can probably find a library in your preferred language. Here is an example in python with obonet to parse the file and networkx to explore.
