Gene Description

SPAC1851.02 (UniProt Q9US20; the fission yeast SLC1 ortholog) encodes an ER 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase (LPAAT; EC 2.3.1.51), which acylates lysophosphatidic acid at sn-2 to make phosphatidic acid, the branch point for phospholipid and triacylglycerol synthesis. Function is assigned by orthology; it is in the ER in a genome-wide screen.

GO Term Evidence Action Reason
GO:0003841 1-acylglycerol-3-phosphate O-acyltransferase activity
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: LPA acyltransferase (AGPAT) activity (PAINT/EC; S. cerevisiae SLC1 ortholog).
Reason: No S. pombe assay exists (UniProt still names it uncharacterized); the activity rests on membership of the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family (curated SIMILARITY, NCBIfam TIGR00530, InterPro IPR004552), whose characterized members include S. cerevisiae Slc1 and human AGPAT1/2 among the PAINT donors. The family-level argument is accepted for this ortholog.

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family.

ACCEPT
Summary: LPA acyltransferase (AGPAT) activity (PAINT/EC; S. cerevisiae SLC1 ortholog).
Reason: The mapping rests on InterPro IPR004552 (1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase) membership, which UniProt's curated family assignment confirms; the activity is inferred from the family, not assayed in S. pombe.

GO:0005783 endoplasmic reticulum
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: PAINT inference; consistent.
Reason: Root organelle term kept per policy; the claim holds. UniProt curates an ER membrane location from the S. pombe ORFeome localization study (PubMed:16823372); the membrane sub-compartment is carried by the GO:0005789 rows.

GO_REF:0000036
ACCEPT
Summary: ER membrane (curator inference/mapping); consistent.
Reason: Two independent lines agree, the ER localization from the ORFeome screen (curated by UniProt, PubMed:16823372) and three predicted transmembrane helices.

IEA
GO_REF:0000044
ACCEPT
Summary: ER membrane (curator inference/mapping); consistent.
Reason: The SubCell mapping comes from UniProt's curated ER membrane location (multi-pass membrane protein), tied to the ORFeome localization study (PubMed:16823372) and consistent with three predicted transmembrane helices.

IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: PAINT inference: LPA -> PA.
Reason: Follows from the family-inferred LPAAT activity, which acylates lysophosphatidic acid to phosphatidic acid. The support is family membership (curated SIMILARITY, InterPro IPR004552), not an S. pombe experiment.
Supporting Evidence:

SIMILARITY: Belongs to the 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family.

TOO GENERAL
Summary: Broad parent of the phosphatidic acid biosynthetic process annotated in this review.
Reason: True but entailed by GO:0006654 (phosphatidic acid biosynthetic process), accepted elsewhere in this review. The basis is family membership (1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family; NCBIfam TIGR00530), not an S. pombe experiment.

TOO GENERAL
Summary: Generic membrane; the ER membrane location is annotated.
Reason: True but entailed by GO:0005789 (endoplasmic reticulum membrane), accepted elsewhere in this review. The ER membrane location comes from the S. pombe genome-wide localisation screen (PMID:16823372) as recorded by UniProt, and the protein has predicted transmembrane helices.

MODIFY
Summary: Generic InterPro-derived parent of the specific activity, which is already annotated.
Reason: Correct but general. Family membership (1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase family; NCBIfam TIGR00530 and InterPro IPR004552) supports the specific LPA acyltransferase activity GO:0003841, already annotated to this gene; no S. pombe assay.
