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 Belongs to an adhesion system, probably together with the E-cadherin-catenin system, which plays a role in the organization of homotypic, interneuronal and heterotypic cell-cell adherens junctions (AJs) (PubMed:9334353). Nectin- and actin-filament-binding protein that connects nectin to the actin cytoskeleton (PubMed:9334353). May play a key role in the organization of epithelial structures of the embryonic ectoderm (By similarity). Essential for the organization of adherens junctions (By similarity).SUBUNIT Homodimer. Interacts with F-actin, nectin and NECTIN3. Essential for the association of nectin and E-cadherin. Isoform 2/s-afadin does not interact with F-actin. Interacts with ZO-1 and occludin, but probably in an indirect manner. Interacts with RIT1, RIT2, NRXN1 and BCR (By similarity). Interacts with ADAM10; the interaction locks ADAM10 at adherens junctions following ADAM10 recruitment to adherens junctions by TSPAN33 (PubMed:30463011).INTERACTION Not found at cell-matrix AJs.ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS Isoform 1 is widely expressed, including in heart, brain, spleen, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and testis. Isoform 2 is mainly expressed in the brain.MISCELLANEOUS Isoform 1 increases the viscosity of F-actin in a dose-dependent manner. Isoform 1 causes F-actin to associate into bundles and meshworks.
