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.

textROCK proteins are thought to be autoinhibited by interactions between the N-terminal kinase domain and the C-terminal Rho binding domain (RBD) and pleckstrin homology (PH) domains. Interaction between RHOA-GTP and the RBD disrupts ROCK's autoinhibition by suppressing the carboxyl-terminal RBD-PH domain on the amino-terminal kinase domain, leading to an active open kinase domain. ROCKs mediate Rho-induced actin cytoskeletal changes through effects on myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation (Zhou et al. 2011, Amano et al. 2000, Tu et al. 2011).
