GOAPI Get Gene Functions
Get Gene Ontology (GO) annotations for a specific gene, showing its known biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components. Returns GO terms with evidence types (IDA=direct assay, IMP=mutant phenotype, ISS=sequence similarity, etc.) and literature references. Input is a gene CURIE identifier. Example: HGNC:11998 (TP53) returns annotations like 'apoptotic process', 'DNA binding', 'nucleus'.
