Description

Assigns the catalytic activity alpha-D-galactose = beta-D-galactose (RHEA:28675, EC 5.1.3.3, galactose mutarotase) through two alternative condition sets: InterPro IPR008183 and IPR011013 in Metazoa, or CATH FunFam 2.70.98.10:FF:000003 in Eukaryota.

Review Summary

Both live condition sets were checked against Swiss-Prot. Each matches six reviewed entries and all six carry EC 5.1.3.3 (GALM orthologues, e.g. human Q96C23). The Metazoa restriction in set 1 is needed: across all taxa IPR008183 has 32 Swiss-Prot members of which only 18 carry EC 5.1.3.3, the others including glucose-6-phosphate 1-epimerases (EC 5.1.3.15, e.g. yeast Q03161) and the sulfoquinovose mutarotase P32139. Checked against Swiss-Prot by UniProtKB query on 2026-11-09; TrEMBL matches were counted but not inspected.

Action Rationale

Every live condition set is supported: 6 of 6 Swiss-Prot matches of each set carry EC 5.1.3.3, and no reviewed match lacks it.

Assessments

ACCEPTABLE

In set 1 IPR011013 is a homologous superfamily that contains every Swiss-Prot IPR008183 protein (31 of 31 in the recorded pairwise overlap), so it does not narrow the set further. It does no harm.

APPROPRIATE

IPR008183 (Aldose 1-/Glucose-6-phosphate 1-epimerase) is not specific to galactose mutarotase: 32 Swiss-Prot members, 18 with EC 5.1.3.3, 5 with EC 5.1.3.15. Within Metazoa 6 of 6 carry EC 5.1.3.3, so the taxon condition is what makes set 1 precise. Set 2 uses a narrower FunFam and can afford the wider taxon.

confidence: 0.8
corrections:
- date: '2026-11-10'
  withdrawn_claim: The rule should be simplified to IPR008183 alone, and its taxonomic restrictions are too narrow
    and should be widened.
  correction: IPR008183 alone would annotate enzymes that are not galactose mutarotases. The Metazoa condition is
    what makes set 1 correct.
  error_type: CONJUNCTION_IGNORED

  - 'InterPro IPR008183 official name: Aldose 1-/Glucose-6-phosphate 1-epimerase (family)'

- date: '2026-11-10'
  withdrawn_claim: The FunFam being contained in IPR008183, and IPR008183 in IPR011013, makes the rule redundant.
  correction: The FunFam is in a separate, alternative condition set, so its containment in IPR008183 is not redundancy
    inside a conjunction. Only IPR011013 in set 1 is non-restrictive.

- date: '2026-11-10'
  withdrawn_claim: The rule covers only a small number of proteins (3029 unreviewed), suggesting poor sensitivity.
  correction: A protein count is not a sensitivity estimate, and limited coverage is not an error in the annotations
    the rule does make.

  withdrawn_claim: The rule is deficient because it provides no GO annotation.
  correction: The rule assigns a catalytic activity with a Rhea reaction and EC number. The absence of a second
    annotation type is not a defect of the rule.
