Description generation (PDg)

The one-sentence description above was generated by prompting gpt-5.1 with the predicate name and this instruction.

Instruction
Given a predicate that represents a relationship or action between entities, generate a one-sentence description explaining its meaning.  
# Instructions
Focus on describing the relationship, not the entities themselves. 
# Response Format
Begin the description with \' Indicates...\'
Input
Predicate: reactant
Generated description
Indicates that an entity participates as a starting material or input substance in a chemical or reactive process.
