PN row 1: Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway | Autophagophore initiation and elongation | Regulation of autophagophore membrane composition | ATG2-WIPI complex component
UniProt: Q96BY7
In branches: ALP
Notes: Component of ATG2-WIPI complex, which recruits ATG9 to the autophagosome. ATG2A and ATG2B are lipid transporters, carry phospholipids to the phagophore

PN-node mapping records (path + ancestors):
[type] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Autophagophore initiation and elongation|Regulation of autophagophore membrane composition|ATG2-WIPI complex component
status=mapped scope=ok_for_propagation_to_go GO=[GO:0062079 ATG2-ATG18 complex]
rationale: This PN component bucket corresponds to the ATG2-WIPI/ATG18 lipid-transfer complex used during autophagophore membrane expansion. The GO ATG2-ATG18 complex term is the closest component-level target.
[group] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Autophagophore initiation and elongation|Regulation of autophagophore membrane composition
status=no_mapping scope= GO=[]
rationale: Reviewed as a broad PN taxonomy container. The descendants mix components, regulators, context labels, and mechanistic leaves, so propagation should come only from narrower curated nodes.
[class] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Autophagophore initiation and elongation
status=context_only scope=too_broad_to_propagate GO=[GO:0016236 macroautophagy]
rationale: This class is a real macroautophagy context, but its descendants include core factors, component buckets, upstream modulators, localization roles, and residual categories. Projecting generic macroautophagy from this ancestor creates TRAPP-like overpropagation, so candidate GO annotations must come from narrower curated nodes.
[branch] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway
status=no_mapping scope= GO=[]
rationale: Reviewed as the top-level PN branch. It is a project taxonomy umbrella rather than a direct GO assertion; all propagation must come from manually curated child nodes.
