Justin,

I turned your example text file into a SIF (attached), imported it into Cytoscape and then used the Ontology and Annotation importer to get GO slim terms for Mus musculus.  The keys matched between your file and the annotation. I confirmed this by previewing the first 12,000 rows of the annotation file, which includes ‘Apobec1’ and shows 18 matches for that particular ID. But, when I click ‘Import’, nothing but empty fields are loaded. I think this is what you were seeing as well.

Not sure why this isn’t working...
