Query author contributions in Reactome

Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.

If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

commentFUNCTION Insulin receptor-like tyrosine kinase which regulates metabolism, controls longevity and prevents developmental arrest at the dauer stage (PubMed:11743719, PubMed:21334311, PubMed:22916022, PubMed:24332851, PubMed:24385923, PubMed:28853436, PubMed:29500338, PubMed:9252323, PubMed:9790527). Binding of INS family members may either stimulate, or antagonize, association of the receptor with downstream mediators such as pdk-1 and age-1 (PubMed:11274053). Required for germline progenitor proliferation during larval development (PubMed:22278922). Plays a role in maintaining gonad integrity in a daf-16/FOXO-dependent manner (PubMed:22916022). Required for the response to environmental stimuli such as light, food, pheromone, and temperature (PubMed:24332851, PubMed:29500338). Negatively regulates resistance to UV and oxidative stress (PubMed:24332851). In a daf-16/FOXO-dependent manner, plays a role in regulating the response to white light (PubMed:29500338). Role in immune function and pathogen resistance (PubMed:18782349). Negatively regulates autophagy (PubMed:22560223). Regulates daf-18/PTEN protein levels (PubMed:23995781). Plays a role in controlling seam cell development during the larval stages (PubMed:21471153).FUNCTION Required for taste avoidance learning in the cell body of ASER gustatory neurons.FUNCTION Required for taste avoidance learning in axons of ASER gustatory neurons.CATALYTIC ACTIVITY L-tyrosyl-[protein] + ATP = O-phospho-L-tyrosyl-[protein] + ADP + H(+)COFACTOR Autophosphorylation activates the kinase activity (By similarity). Interaction with shc-1 may inhibit its activity (PubMed:18832074).SUBUNIT Tetramer of 2 alpha and 2 beta chains linked by disulfide bonds. The alpha chains contribute to the formation of the ligand-binding domain, while the beta chains carry the kinase domain (By similarity). Interacts (via cytoplasmic domain) with shc-1 (PID domain) (PubMed:18832074). Interacts (via kinase domain) with daf-18 (via C-terminus) (PubMed:23995781).SUBUNIT Interacts with casy-1; promoting axonal localization.SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Localizes to the synapse-rich neurite that extends axons. Casy-1 is required for axonal localization.ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS Accumulation of fat, pigmented intestine, increased lifespan, increased dauer formation and increased resistance to pathogens. Severe loss of function mutants display recessive early embryonic lethality (PubMed:11274053, PubMed:18245374, PubMed:18782349, PubMed:9252323, PubMed:9790527). RNAi-mediated knockdown in germline, hypodermis, intestine or in muscles causes increased lifespan (PubMed:24332851, PubMed:28853436). RNAi-mediated knockdown in a ncl-1 mutant (e1942) background reduces the increased longevity of the daf-2 single mutant, and reduces the increased ribosomal protein synthesis in the ncl-1 single mutant (e1942) (PubMed:28853436). RNAi-mediated knockdown in adults causes an increase in lgg-1 positive autophagic vesicles (PubMed:22560223). RNAi-mediated knockdown results in an increase in the number of muscle arm extensions (PubMed:18436204). RNAi-mediated knockdown together with tatn-1 RNAi extends the lifespan of the single daf-2 RNAi mutant (PubMed:24385923).SIMILARITY Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. Insulin receptor subfamily.
