Revise "gene_with_edited_transcript" parentage
SO term name and accession gene_with_edited_transcript (SO:0000548)
Current parent term name and accession protein_coding_gene (SO:0001217)
Suggested new parent term name and accession gene (SO:0000704)
Reason for the change
- current def ("A gene that encodes a transcript that is edited.") doesn't specify the gene has to be protein coding
- Editing sites have been observed in ncRNAs

@keilbeck Was this term meant to apply to protein coding genes only? It is not specified in the definition, but it can be inferred based on its placement in the ontology. If so, we may want to specify that attribute and create a new term under ncRNA and ncRNA_gene. There are no children of this particular term but the siblings all share a similar format "gene_with_[...]".
