Gene Description

pgi2 (PP_4701) encodes a second glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, catalyzing reversible interconversion of D-glucose 6-phosphate and D-fructose 6-phosphate. In P. putida KT2440 this reaction is especially relevant to gluconeogenic and anabolic hexose-phosphate regeneration because glucose catabolism primarily uses the Entner-Doudoroff network rather than a complete forward EMP route.

Existing Annotations Review

GO Term Evidence Action Reason
GO:0004347 glucose-6-phosphate isomerase activity
IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: glucose-6-phosphate isomerase activity is consistent with the curated UniProt name, EC/family evidence, and the gene product role summarized here.
Reason: This is a specific, biologically appropriate annotation for this gene product.
GO:0005737 cytoplasm
IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: cytoplasm is consistent with the curated UniProt name, EC/family evidence, and the gene product role summarized here.
Reason: This is a specific, biologically appropriate annotation for this gene product.
GO:0005829 cytosol
IEA
GO_REF:0000118
ACCEPT
Summary: cytosol is consistent with the curated UniProt name, EC/family evidence, and the gene product role summarized here.
Reason: This is a specific, biologically appropriate annotation for this gene product.
GO:0006094 gluconeogenesis
IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: gluconeogenesis is consistent with the curated UniProt name, EC/family evidence, and the gene product role summarized here.
Reason: This is a specific, biologically appropriate annotation for this gene product.
GO:0006096 glycolytic process
IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: glycolytic process is a defensible parent term for glucose-6-phosphate isomerase. Refining to GO:0061688 (glycolytic process via Entner-Doudoroff Pathway) is incorrect because the G6P<->F6P isomerization is an EMP/gluconeogenic step and is not part of the Entner-Doudoroff route (F6P is not an ED intermediate); accordingly the ED/gluconeogenesis module places glucose-6-phosphate isomerase under the gluconeogenic bypasses branch rather than the ED branch. GO:0061688 has since been obsoleted (GO release 2026-07-26, replaced_by GO:0006096), which leaves GO:0006096 as the only applicable term.
Reason: Keep the existing glycolytic process annotation as-is; do not refine to the ED-specific child term since pgi is not an ED enzyme.
GO:0048029 monosaccharide binding
IEA
GO_REF:0000118
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: monosaccharide binding is biologically plausible for this enzyme but is ancillary to the more specific catalytic function.
Reason: Retain as a supporting/non-core annotation rather than using it as the main functional summary.
GO:0051156 glucose 6-phosphate metabolic process
IEA
GO_REF:0000118
ACCEPT
Summary: glucose 6-phosphate metabolic process is consistent with the curated UniProt name, EC/family evidence, and the gene product role summarized here.
Reason: This is a specific, biologically appropriate annotation for this gene product.
GO:0097367 carbohydrate derivative binding
IEA
GO_REF:0000002
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: carbohydrate derivative binding is a broad parent or generic domain-derived term that adds little beyond the specific catalytic annotation.
Reason: The annotation is not necessarily false, but it is less informative than the specific molecular function already present.
GO:1901135 carbohydrate derivative metabolic process
IEA
GO_REF:0000002
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: carbohydrate derivative metabolic process is a broad parent or generic domain-derived term that adds little beyond the specific catalytic annotation.
Reason: The annotation is not necessarily false, but it is less informative than the specific molecular function already present.
