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 Uniporter that mediates the uptake of cationic L-amino acids such as L-arginine, L-lysine and L-ornithine (PubMed:11591158). The transport is sodium ions- and pH-independent, moderately trans-stimulated and is mediated by passive diffusion (PubMed:11591158).CATALYTIC ACTIVITY L-arginine(in) = L-arginine(out)CATALYTIC ACTIVITY L-lysine(in) = L-lysine(out)CATALYTIC ACTIVITY L-ornithine(in) = L-ornithine(out)INTERACTION Highly expressed in thymus, uterus and testis (PubMed:11591158). Detected at lower levels in brain, mammary gland, prostate, salivary gland and fetal spleen (PubMed:11591158). In brain, highest expression in thalamus, hippocampus and amygdala (PubMed:11591158).PTM N-glycosylated.SIMILARITY Belongs to the amino acid-polyamine-organocation (APC) superfamily. Cationic amino acid transporter (CAT) (TC 2.A.3.3) family.SEQUENCE CAUTION Truncated N-terminus.
