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 Promotes the release of prenylated target proteins from cellular membranes (PubMed:9712853). Modulates the activity of prenylated or palmitoylated Ras family members by regulating their subcellular location (PubMed:22002721, PubMed:23698361). Required for normal ciliary targeting of farnesylated target proteins, such as INPP5E (PubMed:24166846). Required for RAB28 localization to the cone cell outer segments in the retina (By similarity). Modulates the subcellular location of target proteins by acting as a GTP specific dissociation inhibitor (GDI) (By similarity). Increases the affinity of ARL3 for GTP by several orders of magnitude. Stabilizes ARL3-GTP by decreasing the nucleotide dissociation rate (By similarity).SUBUNIT Interacts with the prenylated catalytic subunits of PDE6, an oligomer composed of two catalytic chains (PDE6A and PDE6B) and two inhibitory chains (gamma); has no effect on enzyme activity but promotes the release of the prenylated enzyme from cell membrane (By similarity). Interacts with prenylated GRK1 and GRK7 (By similarity). Interacts with prenylated Ras family members, including RAP2A and RAP2C (By similarity). Interacts with prenylated RHEB and NRAS (PubMed:22002721). Interacts with prenylated HRAS and KRAS. Interacts with RAB13 (prenylated form); dissociates RAB13 from membranes (PubMed:9712853). Interacts with prenylated INPP5E (PubMed:24166846). Interacts with RAB28 (prenylated form); the interaction promotes RAB28 delivery to the photoreceptor outer segments (By similarity). Interacts with RPGR (PubMed:23559067, PubMed:24166846, PubMed:9990021). Interacts with ARL2 (PubMed:22002721, PubMed:24166846). Interacts with ARL3; the interaction occurs specifically with the GTP-bound form of ARL3 (PubMed:24166846). Interaction with ARL2 and ARL3 promotes release of farnesylated cargo proteins (PubMed:22002721).INTERACTION Widely expressed. Detected in various tissues including spleen, prostate gland, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon, retina, and peripheral blood.DISEASE The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.SIMILARITY Belongs to the PDE6D/unc-119 family.
