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.

textEvidence suggests that WASP and N-WASP exist in an inactive auto-inhibited conformation in resting cells as a result of intramolecular interactions between the VCA domain and the GBD domain and the basic region upstream of the GBD (Rohatgi et al.2000). WASP and N-WASP are activated in vitro following binding of active Cdc42. In Xenopus, TOCA-1, which binds both Cdc42 and N-WASP, relieves WIP-mediated inhibition and enables Cdc42 activation of the N-WASP–WIP complex (Ho et al., 2004). Cdc42–GTP is required for the activation of N-WASP and for TOCA-1 to bind to the N-WASP–WIP complex and activate it. **Inferred from reaction involving bovine TOCA-1, ARP2/3, Xenopus N-WASP-WIP complex.
