They are specified by tags within the ontology that indicate if a given term is a member of a particular subset. GO subsets are particularly useful for providing a broad overview of the range of functions and processes. More information can and links for downloading subsets be found on the [Guide to GO subsets](/docs/go-subset-guide/) page. ## Cross-references of GO to other classification systems - -Many GO classes have been cross-referenced (mapped) to a number of external classification systems. The [cross-references of external classification systems to GO page](/docs/download-mappings/) contains more information and links to the cross-reference2GO files. +Many GO classes have cross-references (mapped) to a number of external classification systems. The [cross-references of external classification systems to GO page](/docs/download-mappings/) contains more information and links to the cross-reference2GO files. ## Snapshot editions - As of April 2019, the standard PURLs for GO will resolve to the monthly (release) version. We *strongly* recommend using the latest official release instead of snapshot. If you have need to access the snapshot (daily) version, use `/snapshot/` in the URL. For example: * http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go/snapshot/go.obo
