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 Small GTPase playing a general role in disease resistance signaling pathway. Acts downstream of heterotrimeric G protein alpha subunit. Regulates cell death and reactive oxygen species production, probably through NADPH oxidase. Also involved in sphingolipid elicitor (SE)-dependent defense signaling. Activates phytoalexin production and alters defense-related genes. Down-regulates metallothionein 2b, a reactive oxygen scavenger (PubMed:10485927, PubMed:11149940, PubMed:12237405, PubMed:15220467). May control lignin synthesis through regulation of both NADPH oxidase and CCR1 activities during defense responses. Stimulates lignin synthesis in suspension cell culture (PubMed:15951489).SUBUNIT May interact with MPK1/MAPK6 (PubMed:15951489). Binds to RBOHB, preferentially in the GTP-bound form (PubMed:19864426). Interacts with CCR1 in a GTP-dependent manner (PubMed:16380417).INTERACTION Associated with the membrane when activated.PTM May be palmitoylated.SIMILARITY Belongs to the small GTPase superfamily. Rho family.
