The most common use of GO annotations is for interpretation of large-scale molecular biology experiments, to gain insight into the structure, function, and dynamics of an organism. ["Gene Ontology enrichment analysis"](/docs/go-enrichment-analysis) is used to discover statistically significant similarities or differences under alternate controlled experimental conditions. ### The GO and the Alliance of Genome Resources -In 2016, the GO knowledgebase partnered with model organism databases (MODs) to form the [Alliance of Genome Resources](https://www.alliancegenome.org){:target="blank"} (the Alliance). The mission of the Alliance is to develop and maintain sustainable genome information resources that facilitate the use of diverse model organisms in understanding the genetic and genomic basis of human biology, health and disease. The partner MODs are: [Flybase](https://flybase.org/){:target="blank"}, [Mouse Genome Database (MGI)](http://www.informatics.jax.org/){:target="blank"}, [Rat Genome Database (RGD)](https://rgd.mcw.edu/){:target="blank"}, [*Saccharomyces* Genome Database(SGD)](https://www.yeastgenome.org/){:target="blank"}, [WormBase](https://wormbase.org){:target="blank"}, [Xenbase](https://www.xenbase.org/entry/){:target="blank"}, and [Zebrafish Information Network(ZFIN)](https://zfin.org/){:target="blank"}. +In 2016, the GO knowledgebase partnered with model organism databases (MODs) to form the [Alliance of Genome Resources](https://www.alliancegenome.org){:target="blank"} (the Alliance).

GO has been a Global Core Biodata Resources (GCBRs) since the first set was selected in December 2022. Among other criteria, GCBRs selection is based on the status of the resource as authoritative databases or knowledgebases that are used extensively, have a proven longevity, and provide free and open access to their high quality data.
