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.

| text | Desmosomes represent one of the anchoring junctions mediating strong cell-cell contacts.Desmosomal plaque proteins including the head domain of plakophilin provide interaction sites for cytokeratin filaments (see references in Weiske et al.,2001). Proteolytic fragmentation of these proteins prevents binding of intermediate filaments and in consequence results in remodeling of the intermediate filament cytoskeleton (Weiske et al., 2001).Cleaved Plakophilin-1 appears to be impaired in supporting the formation and maintenance of desmosomes during apoptosis (Weiske et al., 2001). Caspase-3 inhibition prevents cleavage of Plakophilin-1, implicating Caspase-3 as the responsible endopeptidase (Weiske et al. 2001). |
