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.

commentFUNCTION Plays a major role in the shutoff of the host protein expression by cleaving mRNAs probably via an endonuclease activity. This host shutoff allows the virus to escape from the host antiviral response (By similarity). Hijacks host RNA splicing machinery to selectively target host RNAs containing introns for destruction. This may explain the preferential degradation of RNAs that have undergone co- or post-transcriptional processing (By similarity).SUBCELLULAR LOCATION The probable endonuclease active site in the N-terminus and the basic amino acid cluster in the C-terminus are important for the shutoff activity. The C-terminus acts as a nuclear localization signal (By similarity). The C-terminus is recruited to host protein complexes involved in nuclear Pol II RNA processing (By similarity).SIMILARITY Belongs to the influenza viruses PA-X family.
