Adenine and Adenosine Salvage II
PathBank:SMP0002083
This complete current PathBank definition couples AdeP-mediated adenine uptake to DeoD-dependent adenosine synthesis, Add deamination and Gsk-dependent inosine phosphorylation to IMP. It contains four elementary events and the native, non-elementary Aspartate Metabolism input interface; the latter does not import the entire connected pathway. E. coli K-12 protein evidence, MG1655 regulatory experiments and specific transport-assay strains remain distinct. PathBank labels its protein BioSource K-12 but links BW25113; that conflicting annotation is not adopted as universal strain identity. The native 1:1 proton/adenine transport ratio is a database assertion, not a measured coupling ratio in the inspected papers. Rhea gives the balanced charged chemistry; native neutral IMP_Cytosol and IMP_Cytoplasm remain separate source-view instances, with no invented transport or protonation reaction between them. DeoD is a hexamer and Gsk an active dimer; GDP/ppGpp promote concentration-dependent tetramerization, with ppGpp-bound tetramers less active than bound dimers. No issuing identifier was established for that conditional tetramer, so its state is retained in evidence. A crystallographic octamer is not assigned physiological status. PurR represses adeP transcription; adenine increases add transcription without direct PurR regulation of add. Older GTP-inhibition annotation conflicts with the 2020 GDP-not-GTP result. Native MetaCyc PWY-6611 is the related three-reaction core, not an exact alias for this transport/interface-inclusive record.

- CREATE — Add complete Adenine and Adenosine Salvage II with scoped microbial evidence
Added PathBank:SMP0002083 with 47 named IDs, 39 participants, 5 reaction/process nodes, 57 edges, 81 evidence items, and 23 references. The fifth node is the opaque Aspartate Metabolism input interface, not an invented elementary reaction. Exact target SHA256 8b8eb42ace01b8d663ecff30a85e47d6de7b25e7cde785b268655ab281153157. Original full independent review found the PWML interface evidence locator defect #422; the accepted successor changes exactly two evidence fields and preserves all biology. External original-RDF replay, correction controls, and independent exact-delta reassessment passed with strain, compartment/protonation, regulatory, conditional-assembly, and abstract-only evidence limits retained. The current 222-record duplicate audit included ignored/hidden files and followed symlinks, with actual merged tree 929b9b0578a280aed04e20cf33d412b13ba0d822 independently bridged. The dossier research/pathway_additions/2026-10-11-next-222 archives the original and resolved finding separately. Maintained rendering, full corpus gates, graph/KGX preservation, and canonical review follow adoption and are not claimed complete by this event. Data licensing is deferred for public release; no source-exhaustion claim.
