PN row 1: Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway | Autophagophore initiation and elongation | Class 3 PI3K complex 1, direct | Modulator of class 3 PI3K complex 1 activity | Modulator of BECN1 availability
UniProt: O60238
In branches: ALP
Notes: Mitochondrial membrane protein. Inhibits RHEB, also releases BECN1 from complexes with Bcl2 or BclXL. Also is a receptor for mitophagy by binding to LC3 through an LIR domain and enhances autophagy in response to hypoxia.

status=context_only scope=too_broad_to_propagate GO=[GO:0035032 phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase complex, class III]
rationale: Reviewed as a class-III PI3K complex context or regulator bucket. This node is useful for curator interpretation, but it should not project cellular-component membership; only explicit complex-component leaves propagate to GO complex terms.

[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.

[type] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Autophagy substrate selection|Selective autophagy receptor|Mitophagy
status=mapped scope=ok_for_propagation_to_go GO=[GO:0000423 mitophagy]
rationale: This PN path denotes selective-autophagy receptors for mitochondrial cargo. The source category is a mechanistic sub-role within mitophagy, so propagation rather than exact equivalence is the correct scope.
[group] Autophagy-Lysosome Pathway|Autophagy substrate selection|Selective autophagy receptor
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|Autophagy substrate selection
status=no_mapping scope= GO=[]
rationale: Reviewed as a broad substrate-selection container. GO has useful targets for specific receptor, cargo-adaptor, and selective-autophagy leaves, but this class mixes marking, recognition, receptor regulation, and unknown roles and should not propagate as one term.
