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.

textLaminin is a large trimeric glycoprotein, found in all basement membranes and the extracellular matrix of the developing central nervous system (Timpl 1989, Beck et al. 1990, Tryggvason 1993, Colognato & Yurchenco 2000). It forms extended polymeric networks that contact the cell surface. Laminin can self-assemble even in the absence of other basement membrane components (Yurchenco et al. 1992) suggesting a key developmental role. Laminin polymerization is thought to be driven by attachment of laminin to cell surface receptors, dystroglycan or integrins, and possibly other receptors. Receptor-engaged laminin exceeds the critical concentration for self-assembly (Colognato & Yurchenco 2000). Binding experiments agree with a proposed three-arm interaction model where the short arm laminin amino-terminal (LN) domains interact alpha-beta, alpha-gamma and beta-gamma to form a polygonal network (Yurchenco et al. 1985, Odenthal et al. 2004).
