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.

textCa2+ influx from the extracellular space into the presynaptic neuron through the Voltage Gated Ca2+ Channels (VGCC), is dependant on the arrival of an action potential at the synaptic bulb. The vesicle fusion and subsequent release of glutamate into the synapse is triggered by this influx of Ca2+. The VGCCs involved here could be of the N, P/Q or R , and L type.
Hyperpolarization of the cell membrane due to KIR3 potassium channel activity inhibits this influx of Ca2+.
