Hi All,

We figured out more,  the structural component is there under GO_function with
several of the anatomical terms as part of function.

examples:
muscle myosin
non-muscle myosin
muscle thin filament tropomyosin
structural constituent of myelin sheath
anther dehiscence
structural constituent of bone

and several other instances of  
*structural constituent* 

Most of them have anatomical descriptors as part of the term.

Also there is a term for "yolk protein" under "structural molecule". This a
storage protein for the developing embryo a distant equivalent of seed storage
protein, but atleast the later term refelcts some fucntion.

Infact the term part "molecule" in "structural molecule" might be considered for
removal the same way as the term part "protein". 

Any opinions! 


I think I have made my point here and I don't want to be so critical every time.
Sorry about that.

Cheers
Pankaj
