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.

textSidekick-1 (SDK1) and sidekick-2 (SDK2) are cell adhesion molecules of the immunoglobulin superfamily expressed by nonoverlapping subsets of retinal neurons. They have been shown to function as neuronal targeting molecules, guiding developing neurons to specific synapses.
SDKs are concentrated at synapses that connect SDK-expressing pre- and postsynaptic partners, suggesting that their homophilic adhesion properties promote formation or stabilization of synapses.

SDKs promotes lamina-specific synaptic connections in the retina and are specifically required for the formation of neuronal circuits that detect motion (Krishnaswamy et al. 2015).
