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.

textAlthough phosphorylation of activated rhodopsin (MII) reduces transducin activation, complete deactivation occurs only after arrestin (S-antigen or SAG, Yamaki et al. 1988) binds to and sterically caps MII. SAG is capable of binding unphosphorylated MII, but with very low probability. Binding affinity increases greatly upon phosphorylation. Binding of SAG generally occurs after MII has been phosphorylated ~3 times, and binding prevents further phosphorylation. Interestingly, rods express a small amount of a splice variant of SAG, P44, but its function is not yet known. Defects in SAG cause Oguchi type 1 disease (CSNBO1; MIM:258100), a recessive form of congenital stationary night blindness characterized by impaired scotopic vision (Fuchs et al. 1995).
