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.

textThe actin-binding domain of plectin interacts with the first pair of FNIII repeats and the N-terminal 35 amino acids of the connecting segment of integrin b4 ( Geerts et al., 1999; Niessen et al., 1997; Koster et al., 2004). This interaction is thought to be the initial step in hemidesmosome (HD) assembly and is critical for the mechanical stability of the HD. This interaction is destabilized when HD disassembly is required, for example, to allow cell migration during wound healing. The Integrin a6b4 also associates extracellularly with laminin-332 (See Koster et al., 2003).
