# SwissProt Gene Ontology Dataset

This is a snapshot of the SwissProt dataset with gene ontology (GO) term annotations scraped from the Uniprot API. It is a raw and unfiltered dataset that can be processed to build datasets for protein function prediction.

## Subsets

The SwissProt Gene Ontology dataset is available on HuggingFace Hub and can be loaded using the HuggingFace [Datasets](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets) library. 

To load the default SwissProt Gene Ontology dataset with all function annotations you can use the example below.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("andrewdalpino/SwissProt-Gene-Ontology")
```
