That question is pretty ambiguous, and I can think of several answers 
that might be applicable. Are you asking:

a.) Given a set of genes, I want to know the GO terms associated with each.

b.) Given a set of genes, I want to know if there are any GO terms that 
are over-represented.

c.) Given a set of genes, I want to know what GO ontologies the genes 
map to.

d.) Something else?

Can you re-specify your question to be a bit less ambiguous?

Best,

Jim
