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.

textBotulinum toxin type B light chain (botB LC), in the cytosol of a target cell, catalyzes the removal of an aminoterminal peptide from vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (VAMP2). botB LC is a zinc metalloprotease (Foran et al. 1994; Schiavo et al. 1992). VAMP2 is associated with the cytosolic face of the target cell synaptic vesicle and is required for vesicle docking and exocytosis. Its cleavage by botulinum toxin blocks synaptic vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane and neurotransmitter release and in vivo leads to a long lasting flaccid paralysis (Sudhof et al, 1993; Sudhof 2004).
