Gene Description

GID1B (GA INSENSITIVE DWARF1B; locus At3g63010) is one of three soluble gibberellin (GA) receptors in Arabidopsis thaliana, together with GID1A and GID1C. Like its paralogs it has the alpha/beta-hydrolase fold of the hormone-sensitive lipase (GDXG) family but is not a hydrolase; the fold forms a pocket that binds bioactive GAs, after which an N-terminal lid closes over the hormone and creates a surface that binds the N-terminal DELLA domain of the DELLA growth repressors (GAI, RGA, RGL1, RGL2, RGL3). The GA-GID1-DELLA complex is recognized by the SCF(SLY1) E3 ubiquitin ligase, leading to DELLA polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation; GA-GID1 binding can also inhibit DELLA activity without proteolysis. GID1B differs biochemically from GID1A and GID1C: it has about ten-fold higher affinity for GA4, binds GA over a narrow pH range, and needs less GA to engage DELLAs, suggesting it acts as a receptor at low GA levels. GID1B belongs to a separate eudicot GID1b clade and is expressed mainly in ovules, seeds and roots, where it contributes to GA-dependent root growth when GA is limiting; its transcript rises during seed after-ripening, and its overexpression relieves DELLA repression of germination. Single gid1b mutants have no obvious phenotype, but GID1B contributes, redundantly with GID1A, to stamen elongation, male fertility and seed set, and the gid1a gid1b gid1c triple mutant is a GA-insensitive dwarf.

Proposed New Ontology Terms

gibberellin receptor activity

Definition: Binding to a gibberellin and, as a result, undergoing a conformational change that promotes gibberellin-dependent binding of DELLA repressor proteins, thereby transducing the gibberellin signal.

Justification: GID1 proteins, including GID1B, are bona fide soluble GA receptors but GO has no gibberellin receptor activity term (checked in GO via OAK/OLS); gibberellin binding (GO:0010331) captures ligand binding but not signal transduction. Same proposal as in the GID1A review.

Summary: GA-dependent interaction of GID1B with the DELLA protein RGL2 (Q8GXW1). This interaction is the effector step of the receptor, but generic protein binding conveys no functional information.
Reason: Generic protein binding is uninformative. The underlying GA-dependent GID1-DELLA interaction is real and central to receptor function, but it is captured by gibberellin binding (GO:0010331) plus the GA signaling process terms and the proposed gibberellin receptor activity term; no existing GO MF term specifically describes DELLA binding by an activated receptor.

Summary: IntAct IPI interaction of GID1B with RGA attributed to a FRIGIDA/cap-binding-complex flowering paper. The cached full text does not mention GID1 or DELLA proteins, so the source of this row cannot be verified here.
Reason: Generic protein binding is uninformative and is removed under the protein-binding policy. The GID1B-RGA interaction itself is real (GA-dependent binding shown in PMID:16709201 and PMID:17194763) and is already covered by gibberellin binding (GO:0010331), the GA signaling process terms and the proposed gibberellin receptor activity term. Separately, the cited reference looks mismatched: the cached full text of PMID:19429606 (FRIGIDA and the nuclear cap-binding complex) does not mention GID1 or DELLA proteins, so this is probably an IntAct reference error. Removal does not mean the interaction is false.

Summary: Cytoplasmic pool inferred from the GID1 clade (experimental nucleocytoplasmic localization of GID1A).
Reason: GID1 proteins are soluble receptors distributed between nucleus and cytoplasm (GID1A-GFP is nucleocytoplasmic), so the clade IBA is plausible and not contradicted for this paralog. However, the nuclear pool is the functionally relevant one, where the GA-GID1 complex engages nuclear DELLA repressors; no cytoplasm-specific role is known, so the location is kept as non-core (consistent with the SLY1 review).

Summary: Genetic evidence (in combination with the GA1/ga1-3 locus and sly1 backgrounds): GID1B overexpression relieves DELLA repression in a GA-dependent way.

REMOVE
Summary: NOT involved in response to gibberellin (IGI, with Q940G6), based on the absence of a pistil/fruit phenotype in a gid1b single or double mutant in which another GID1 paralog remains.
Reason: The negation is contradicted by direct evidence that GID1B is a functional GA receptor: recombinant GID1B binds GA and interacts with DELLAs only in the presence of GA, and it rescues the rice gid1 mutant. Lack of a phenotype in a mutant retaining a redundant paralog (the paper itself reports compensatory GID1A up-regulation) reflects genetic redundancy, not absence of involvement in GA responses.

GO:0010331 gibberellin binding
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: GID1B binds bioactive gibberellins (highest affinity for GA4); IBA inferred from the GID1 clade (PTN000546395) seeded by Arabidopsis GID1A and rice GID1, and directly supported by in vitro GA-binding assays on recombinant GID1B.
Reason: Core molecular function of a GA receptor. GID1B lies within the GID1 receptor clade, and its own GA-binding activity was demonstrated biochemically.

MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: Genetic interaction annotation from PMID:24961590: in a double mutant lacking GID1B and its paralog (Q940G6), expression of the remaining GID1A receptor gene was enhanced.
Reason: The observation reflects indirect GA/DELLA homeostatic feedback on GID1A transcription when receptor capacity is reduced, not a gene-expression regulatory activity of the receptor itself. The broad term "negative regulation of gene expression" overstates the evidence.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:24961590

GO:0016787 hydrolase activity
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
REMOVE
Summary: Hydrolase activity propagated by IBA from a deep PAINT node (PTN009058710) seeded by catalytically active carboxylesterases/arylacetamide deacetylases that share the alpha/beta-hydrolase (HSL/GDXG lipolytic enzyme) fold.
Reason: GID1 receptors retain the hormone-sensitive-lipase fold but are not hydrolases; the fold has been repurposed into a GA-binding pocket. The GID1 clade diverged from the catalytic ancestral function, so the deep-node IBA and the fold-based IEA are over-propagated to a non-catalytic receptor (pseudoenzyme over-annotation).

Reason: GID1 receptors retain the hormone-sensitive-lipase fold but are not hydrolases; the fold has been repurposed into a GA-binding pocket.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: ARBA-predicted role in fruit morphogenesis, a downstream developmental output of GA signaling.
Reason: GA perception by the GID1 receptors (partially redundantly, with GID1A predominant) controls fruit growth; GID1B contributes mainly through ovule/seed development. Pleiotropic downstream output, not the core function.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:24961590
We show that GID1A plays a major role during fruit-set, whereas GID1B and GID1C have partially redundant function with GID1A in seed development and pod elongation, respectively

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Genetic interaction with GID1A: gid1a gid1b plants have reduced seed set due to maternal (ovule) defects; GID1A and GID1B are the receptors expressed in ovules.
Reason: Experimentally supported reproductive output of GA perception; downstream and redundant, not the molecular core function.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:24961590
However, we found that the double mutant gid1a gid1b, which does not have GID1 activity in ovules, showed reduced seed-set even when fertilized by WT pollen

Core Functions

Soluble gibberellin receptor: binds bioactive GAs (preferentially GA4) in its hydrolase-fold pocket; the GA-bound receptor then engages the DELLA domain of DELLA repressors, initiating GA signaling. Positive regulator of GA signaling: by forming the GA-GID1-DELLA complex it promotes SCF(SLY1)-mediated DELLA ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation and also inhibits DELLA repression without proteolysis, partially redundantly with the other GID1 receptors.

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Does GID1B bind DELLA proteins at physiologically meaningful levels in the absence of GA in planta, and does this GA-independent binding contribute to signaling in seeds?

Q: Is the narrow pH optimum of GID1B GA binding relevant to its function in ovules and imbibed seeds, where it is preferentially expressed?

Q: Why is GID1B not sufficient to sustain stem elongation in gid1a gid1c, given that its mRNA is detectable in stems: is the protein unstable there, or is it limited by DELLA preference?

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Compare GA-dependent and GA-independent GID1B-DELLA complex formation in imbibed seeds by co-immunoprecipitation in ga1-3 versus wild type, with GID1A as control.

Experiment: Swap the N-terminal lid region between GID1B and GID1A and test GA affinity, pH dependence and rescue of gid1a gid1c to map the determinants of GID1B-specific properties.
