ARBA00022670

View original ARBA rule on UniProt

Type: ARBA
Status: IN_PROGRESS
Action: UNDECIDED

Description

Assigns the UniProt keyword Protease (KW-0645) through 1010 alternative condition sets. About half are single InterPro entries or PANTHER families; the rest are conjunctions of two or three conditions, some with a taxon.

Review Summary

The first 10 of the 1010 live condition sets were examined. They select ClpP, HslV, leucyl aminopeptidase, peptidase M48 and signal peptidase II families, and every reviewed match carries the Protease keyword (5150 of 5150, summed over sets). The other 1000 sets were not examined.

Action Rationale

The rule was sampled, not examined set by set, so no verdict is given. The sampled sets are sound, which removes the grounds of the earlier verdict but does not establish that every set is right. The counts are from Swiss-Prot, which is also what ARBA learns its rules from, so they show the condition sets are coherent rather than giving an independent error rate for unreviewed entries.

    Treating pepsin, trypsin and other mechanistically distinct proteases the same is a design flaw,
    and the classification literature contradicts the rule.
  correction: >-
    All of these enzymes are proteases, which is all the keyword says. That proteases fall into mechanistic
    classes does not make the keyword wrong for any of them. The source given for the contradiction
    was an unattributed sentence labelled as a database, not a retrievable publication.

    Inactive zymogens and other non-catalytic proteins with protease domains would be annotated, giving
