Obsoletion notice: GO:0015593 allose transmembrane transporter activity #707

Open pgaudet opened 3 months ago

pgaudet commented 3 months ago

Dear all,

The proposal has been made to obsolete GO:0015593 allose transmembrane transporter activity

The reason for obsoletion is that there is no evidence that there is another allose-specific transporter that the bacterial ABC allose transporter (GO:0015615 ABC-type D-allose transporter activity). In mammals, allose is transported by the glucose transporter SLC5A1 (P13866), see for example PMID:34381987. There are no annotations to this term; this term is not present in any subset.
