Gene Description

tal (PP_2168) encodes transaldolase, a type 1 transaldolase family enzyme in the non-oxidative pentose phosphate pathway. It reversibly converts sedoheptulose 7-phosphate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to erythrose 4-phosphate and fructose 6-phosphate, helping balance PPP and glycolytic sugar phosphate pools.

Existing Annotations Review

GO Term Evidence Action Reason
GO:0004801 transaldolase activity
IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: This is the exact catalytic activity for Tal. UniProt describes the non-oxidative PPP transaldolase reaction, and GOA links the term to RHEA:17053, EC 2.2.1.2, and PANTHER:PTN002242200.
Reason: GO:0004801 is the core molecular function of tal.

GO_REF:0000120
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: Cytoplasm is compatible with the soluble bacterial enzyme, but GOA also contains the more specific cytosol annotation.
Reason: Avoid retaining both parent cytoplasm and child cytosol as equally informative locations.
GO:0005829 cytosol
IEA
GO_REF:0000118
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Cytosol is the more specific localization for this soluble central-carbon enzyme and is supported by TreeGrafter GOA.
Reason: Keep as location context while the catalytic activity remains the core function.
Supporting Evidence:

GO:0005829 cytosol
GO:0005975 carbohydrate metabolic process
IEA
GO_REF:0000002
MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: The broad carbohydrate metabolic process term is compatible with Tal but redundant with the pentose-phosphate pathway annotation.
Reason: GO:0006098 plus the exact transaldolase activity provide more specific biological information.
GO:0006098 pentose-phosphate shunt
IEA
GO_REF:0000120
ACCEPT
Summary: Tal catalyzes a core non-oxidative PPP rearrangement, so the pentose-phosphate shunt process term is appropriate.
Reason: The process term is directly supported by the enzyme's pathway step.
Supporting Evidence:

ACCEPT
Summary: This manually transferred similarity annotation duplicates the same exact transaldolase activity supported by the UniProt/GOA automated entry.
Reason: The duplicated evidence line supports the same correct core molecular function and should be retained.
