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 Carries out a dual function: signal transduction and activation of transcription. Involved in IL4/interleukin-4- and IL3/interleukin-3-mediated signaling.SUBUNIT Forms a homodimer or a heterodimer with a related family member (By similarity). Interacts with NCOA1 via its C-terminal LXXLL motif.INTERACTION Translocated into the nucleus in response to phosphorylation.ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS Tyrosine phosphorylated on Tyr-641 following stimulation by IL4/interleukin-4 (PubMed:27796300). Tyrosine phosphorylated following stimulation by IL3/interleukin-3 (By similarity). Dephosphorylation on tyrosine residues by PTPN2 negatively regulates the IL4/interleukin-4 mediated signaling (PubMed:17210636).PTM Mono-ADP-ribosylated by PARP14.DISEASE The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.SIMILARITY Belongs to the transcription factor STAT family.
