Gene Description

ayr1 (SPAC23D3.11; UniProt Q09851) encodes the NADPH-dependent 1-acyldihydroxyacetone-phosphate reductase (EC 1.1.1.101). It reduces 1-acyl-DHAP to lysophosphatidic acid in the DHAP route of phosphatidic acid synthesis. By similarity to S. cerevisiae Ayr1, it sits on the ER and lipid droplets and may have a minor triacylglycerol lipase activity. It is in the ER in a genome-wide screen.

ACCEPT
Summary: 1-acyl-DHAP reductase activity (PAINT/EC/similarity), converting acyl-DHAP to lysophosphatidic acid.
Reason: UniProt curates the 1-acyl-DHAP reductase reaction and the DHAP-route function for ayr1 by similarity to S. cerevisiae Ayr1 (P40471, ECO:0000250); no S. pombe enzyme assay exists. The SDR family membership (Pfam PF00106 adh_short) and the curated active-site and NADP-binding features are consistent with an NADPH-dependent reductase. Accepted as the core activity on the strength of the ortholog evidence.

Summary: TAG lipase activity by similarity to S. cerevisiae Ayr1, which has a minor lipase activity at lipid droplets; not shown in S. pombe.
Reason: By similarity to S. cerevisiae Ayr1 (P40471): UniProt records the TAG lipase reaction and a secondary TAG lipase activity for ayr1 with ECO:0000250 evidence from P40471; no S. pombe experiment. A genuine secondary activity of the ortholog, peripheral to the 1-acyl-DHAP reductase core, so kept as non-core.

TOO GENERAL
Summary: Cytoplasm, observed in the S. pombe ORFeome screen; entailed by the ER, Golgi, vacuole and mitochondrial outer membrane locations asserted here.
Reason: S. pombe experiment: UniProt records Cytoplasm from the ORFeome localization screen (ECO:0000269, PubMed:16823372), mapped here by GO_REF:0000044. The organelle locations asserted on this gene (endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, vacuole, mitochondrial outer membrane) are all part_of cytoplasm in GO (checked with oaklib), so this term is true but already entailed.

Reason: S. pombe experiment: UniProt records Golgi apparatus from the ORFeome localization screen (ECO:0000269, PubMed:16823372); the SubCell mapping rests on that direct observation, so the organelle claim holds.

GO:0006654 phosphatidic acid biosynthetic process
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: PAINT inference: acyl-DHAP reduction yields LPA for PA synthesis.
Reason: By similarity to S. cerevisiae Ayr1 (P40471, ECO:0000250), UniProt curates ayr1 as required for phosphatidic acid synthesis via the DHAP pathway, where its own reductase step makes lysophosphatidic acid, so the gene product performs a step of the process. No S. pombe-specific study.
Supporting Evidence:
file:SCHPO/ayr1/ayr1-uniprot.txt
Required for the biosynthesis of phosphatidic acid via the DHAP pathway, where it reduces 1-acyl DHAP to lysophosphatidic acid (LPA).

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: PAINT inference of TAG catabolism (minor lipase activity of the S. cerevisiae ortholog).
Reason: By similarity to S. cerevisiae Ayr1 (P40471): UniProt states, with ECO:0000250 evidence from P40471, that the protein mobilises TAGs from lipid particles by hydrolysis; consistent with the PAINT node. No S. pombe experiment; a secondary role, so non-core.
Supporting Evidence:
file:SCHPO/ayr1/ayr1-uniprot.txt
Involved in the mobilization of the non-polar storage lipids triacylglycerols (TAGs) from lipid particles by hydrolysis of TAGs.
