GID1A (GA INSENSITIVE DWARF1A; locus At3g05120) is one of three soluble nuclear gibberellin (GA) receptors in Arabidopsis thaliana (with the partially redundant paralogs GID1B and GID1C). It belongs to the carboxylesterase / hormone-sensitive lipase superfamily and adopts an alpha/beta-hydrolase fold, but it has lost catalytic hydrolase activity and instead functions as a hormone receptor. GID1A binds bioactive gibberellins (highest affinity for GA4) in a deep pocket that becomes capped by an N-terminal helical switch. GA binding triggers a conformational change in this N-terminal region that creates a surface for direct, GA-dependent interaction with the DELLA growth-repressor proteins (GAI, RGA, RGL1, RGL2, RGL3) via their N-terminal DELLA domain. The resulting GA-GID1-DELLA complex promotes recruitment of the SLEEPY1 (SLY1) F-box subunit of an SCF E3 ubiquitin ligase, leading to polyubiquitination and 26S-proteasomal degradation of DELLA repressors; GA-bound GID1 can also inhibit DELLA repression by a proteolysis-independent mechanism. Through this receptor activity GID1A acts as a positive regulator of GA signaling, derepressing the many developmental processes controlled by gibberellin, including seed germination, stem and root elongation, flower and floral-organ development, fruit-set and fruit growth, and fertility. The receptor is itself subject to regulation, being targeted for ubiquitin- dependent degradation by the RING E3 ligase GARU. GID1A is widely expressed and, among the three receptors, contributes the strongest single-gene effect; loss of all three GID1 genes produces an extreme, GA-insensitive dwarf.
Definition: Binding to a gibberellin and triggering a conformational change that promotes gibberellin-dependent physical interaction with, and subsequent degradation of, DELLA repressor proteins, thereby transducing the gibberellin signal.
Justification: GID1A is a bona fide gibberellin receptor whose ligand binding triggers a conformational change and GA-dependent interaction with DELLA effector proteins. No specific molecular function term for gibberellin receptor activity currently exists in GO (verified absent in OLS); the closest available verified term is GO:0010331 gibberellin binding, which does not capture the receptor (signal transduction) aspect. A child of hormone receptor activity / signaling receptor activity for gibberellin would more accurately represent this function.

| GO:0016787 hydrolase activity | IEA GO_REF:0000002 | REMOVE | Summary: This InterPro-based annotation derives from the alpha/beta-hydrolase / carboxylesterase (hormone-sensitive lipase) fold. GID1 proteins retain the fold but lack hydrolase/esterase catalytic activity; they act as GA receptors. Reason: GID1 was explicitly described as similar to the hormone-sensitive lipase family but WITHOUT hydrolase activity. The protein binds GA as a receptor in a pocket on the hydrolase fold rather than catalyzing hydrolysis. The nominal UniProt EC=3.-.-.- and InterPro fold mapping produce a spurious catalytic MF annotation that does not reflect the true (receptor) function.

This is a high-throughput expression pattern (HEP) observation, not direct evidence that GID1A functions in the hypoxia response. Reason: HEP from a global stress profiling study captures co-regulation rather than a dedicated function. GID1A's characterized role is GA perception; there is no focused evidence that it acts within the hypoxia response specifically. Supporting Evidence: PMID:31519798 we performed a survey spanning the epigenome to translatome of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seedlings in response to hypoxia and reoxygenation |

Reason: Generic protein binding is uninformative. The interaction documents GID1A as a substrate of the RING E3 ligase GARU, which regulates receptor abundance; being a ubiquitination substrate is not a molecular function of GID1A, so no informative MF replacement applies.

Reason: The negation is contradicted by direct evidence that GID1A is a functional GA receptor (GA binding, GA-dependent DELLA interaction, rescue of rice gid1) and by the IMP/IGI annotations from the same paper showing GID1A is required for pistil GA responses. A missing phenotype in a background retaining redundant receptors reflects genetic redundancy, not absence of involvement. Handled the same way as the equivalent NOT rows on GID1B and GID1C. Supporting Evidence: PMID:16709201 These results demonstrate that all three AtGID1s functioned as GA receptors in Arabidopsis PMID:24961590 the gid1a gid1c pistils displayed little or no GA response |

Supporting Evidence: PMID:24961590 the gid1a gid1c pistils displayed little or no GA response |
| GO:0009739 response to gibberellin | IGI PMID:24961590 Role of the gibberellin receptors GID1 during fruit-set in A... | ACCEPT | Summary: Genetic-interaction evidence (with GID1C, UniProtKB:Q940G6) that GID1A acts partially redundantly with the other GID1 receptors in GA responses. Reason: Supports involvement in response to gibberellin via redundancy analysis; consistent with the receptor's role.

Reason: Genuine, experimentally supported developmental role, but a downstream output of GA perception rather than the molecular core function; partially redundant with paralogs. Supporting Evidence: PMID:24961590 GID1A has a major role in the regulation of the differentiation of the inner cell layers of the fruit pod |

| GO:0010476 gibberellin mediated signaling pathway | IGI PMID:17521411 Multiple loss-of-function of Arabidopsis gibberellin recepto... | ACCEPT | Summary: Loss-of-function genetics show that the GID1 receptors are required for GA signaling; the triple mutant completely loses the ability to respond to GA, placing GID1A within the GA-mediated signaling pathway. Reason: Core function. GID1A is a GA receptor that initiates the GA-mediated signaling pathway; strongly supported by genetic shutdown of GA signaling in gid1 multiple mutants. Supporting Evidence: PMID:17521411 the triple knockout seedlings completely lost their ability to respond to exogenously applied GA file:ARATH/GID1A/GID1A-deep-research-falcon.md GA **perception** occurs when a bioactive GA binds the soluble receptor **GID1**, enabling GID1 to recognize DELLA repressors and thereby switch GA signaling βon.β |

This is the defining molecular activity of the GA receptor. Reason: Core molecular function, supported by direct biochemical binding assays and X-ray structures. There is currently no specific "gibberellin receptor activity" GO term, so gibberellin binding is the best available verified MF term for the receptor's ligand-binding activity (see proposed_new_terms). Supporting Evidence: PMID:19037309 GID1A occludes gibberellin in a deep binding pocket covered by its N-terminal helical switch region PMID:16709201 The GA-binding activities of the three recombinant proteins were confirmed by an in vitro assay file:ARATH/GID1A/GID1A-deep-research-falcon.md **GA4** is highlighted as the **highest-affinity** GA and the most effective for driving GID1βDELLA complex formation in planta |
| GO:0009739 response to gibberellin | IEP PMID:17933900 Global analysis of della direct targets in early gibberellin... | ACCEPT | Summary: GID1A is among the early GA-/DELLA-responsive genes; DELLA feedback regulates expression of GA receptor genes, placing GID1A in the response to gibberellin (here as an expression-pattern annotation). Reason: Consistent with GID1A's involvement in GA responses; the IEP reflects feedback regulation of the receptor gene by GA/DELLA. Redundant with the stronger signaling annotations. Supporting Evidence: PMID:17933900 they help establish GA homeostasis by direct feedback regulation on the expression of GA biosynthetic and GA receptor genes |

Reason: Supports involvement in response to gibberellin through the GA-GID1-DELLA mechanism; the GA1 (AT4G02780) interaction reflects the GA requirement of GID1 action. Consistent with the core receptor function. Supporting Evidence: PMID:18827182 GA-bound GID1 can block DELLA repressor activity by direct protein-protein interaction with the DELLA domain |

Reason: Experimental IDA support for the core nuclear localization. Supporting Evidence: PMID:17416730 mutants lacking the three GA INSENSITIVE DWARF1 (GID1) GA receptor genes are GA insensitive |
| GO:0005737 cytoplasm | IDA PMID:17416730 The DELLA domain of GA INSENSITIVE mediates the interaction ... | ACCEPT | Summary: GID1A was also experimentally detected in the cytoplasm. As a soluble receptor, GID1A shows nucleo-cytoplasmic distribution in addition to its nuclear pool. Reason: Direct experimental (IDA) evidence for cytoplasmic localization. Consistent with GID1A being a soluble receptor distributed between nucleus and cytoplasm; kept although the nuclear pool is most functionally relevant for DELLA interaction. Supporting Evidence: PMID:17416730 The DELLA domain of GA INSENSITIVE mediates the interaction with the GA INSENSITIVE DWARF1A gibberellin receptor of Arabidopsis file:ARATH/GID1A/GID1A-deep-research-falcon.md GFP-tagged Arabidopsis GID1A localized to both nucleus and cytoplasm, and this distribution was not altered by GA or paclobutrazol treatment. |
| GO:0005634 nucleus | IBA GO_REF:0000033 | ACCEPT | Summary: Nuclear localization inherited from the GID1 receptor clade node PTN000546395, whose seed is GID1A itself. Reason: Consistent with the experimental (IDA) nuclear rows for GID1A and with the same IBA on GID1B. GID1A appears in its own WITH/FROM because its experimental nuclear localization is one of the descendant evidences behind the IBD; the IBA adds that nuclear residence is inherited across the GID1 clade. Supporting Evidence: PMID:19037309 By binding to a nuclear receptor, GIBBERELLIN INSENSITIVE DWARF1 (GID1), gibberellins regulate gene expression by promoting degradation of the transcriptional regulator DELLA proteins |

Reason: Same claim as the GID1A cytoplasm IDA row (PMID:17416730), which this review ACCEPTs, so the action matches it. GID1A is a soluble receptor found in both nucleus and cytoplasm; the nuclear pool is the one that engages DELLA. Supporting Evidence: file:ARATH/GID1A/GID1A-deep-research-falcon.md GFP-tagged Arabidopsis GID1A localized to both nucleus and cytoplasm, and this distribution was not altered by GA or paclobutrazol treatment. |

Reason: Core molecular function of the GA receptor, shown directly for GID1A by binding assays and crystal structures (IDA row PMID:19037309). The IBD placement on the GID1 clade, not the deeper esterase nodes, matches where GA binding arose. GID1A appearing among its own sources marks experimental grounding on the target. Supporting Evidence: PMID:19037309 GID1A occludes gibberellin in a deep binding pocket covered by its N-terminal helical switch region PMID:16709201 The GA-binding activities of the three recombinant proteins were confirmed by an in vitro assay |
| GO:0016787 hydrolase activity | IBA GO_REF:0000033 | REMOVE | Summary: Hydrolase activity propagated from the deep PAINT node PTN009058710, seeded by active carboxylesterases that share the hormone-sensitive-lipase fold. Reason: GID1A keeps the HSL fold, the Ser nucleophile and the oxyanion hole, but the general-base His of the catalytic triad is replaced by Val319, and GID1 proteins have no detectable hydrolase activity. The fold now forms the GA-binding pocket. Same action as the GID1A IEA hydrolase row and the GID1B IBA row (pseudoenzyme over-propagation). Propagation Review Root cause: PROPAGATION BAD Failure modes: PSEUDO OR SUBACTIVITY LOSS FUNCTIONAL DIVERGENCE Sources checked: PANTHER:PTN009058710 Β· PTN009058710 SUPPORTS SOURCE BUT NOT TARGET Deep PTHR23024 node seeded by catalytically active carboxylesterases and arylacetamide deacetylases (Arabidopsis CXEs, human AADAC P22760, mouse, yeast and bacterial esterases). The GID1 receptor clade nested within it lost the catalytic His (GID1A Val319) and was repurposed for GA binding; the IBD needs a loss (NOT) at the GID1 clade node. Same assessment as the GID1B row. Supporting Evidence: PMID:24961590 GID1 was first described in rice as a nuclear localized protein similar to hormone-sensitive lipase family without hydrolase activity file:ARATH/GID1A/GID1A-hypotheses/gid1a-catalytic-inactivity/openscientist.md GID1A retains the nucleophile Ser191 (in a GDSSG nucleophile elbow), the acid Asp289, and the HGG oxyanion loop (His113), but the general-base His is gone. |
