(NOTE: Transferred from an old JIRA ticket. May already be partially implemented?)

When composed terms are used in TermGenie template requests, the results can be very hard to read or understand:

Examples:

  • cadmium ion regulated sequence-specific DNA binding bacterial-type RNA polymerase transcription factor activity involved in negative regulation of transcription
  • negative regulation of filamentous growth of a population of unicellular organisms in response to starvation by negative regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter
  • positive regulation of ryanodine-sensitive calcium-release channel activity by adrenergic receptor signaling pathway involved in positive regulation of cardiac muscle contraction

These can be blocked by editors at the review stage, but it would be good to have TG rules to block these at the submission stage. There are a couple of approaches we could take:

  • We could ban compounding terms that have already been generated using TG templates.
  • We could implement a set of rules to flag term names that
    • contain combinations of involved in + regulates, or more than one 'regulation'.
    • are over a certain length. Say - 120 chars?
