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 Oxidase with broad substrate specificity, oxidizing aromatic azaheterocycles, such as phthalazine, as well as aldehydes, such as benzaldehyde and retinal. Cannot use hypoxanthine as substrate.CATALYTIC ACTIVITY an aldehyde + O2 + H2O = a carboxylate + H2O2 + H(+)COFACTOR Binds 2 [2Fe-2S] clusters per subunit.COFACTOR Binds 1 FAD per subunit.COFACTOR Binds 1 Mo-molybdopterin (Mo-MPT) cofactor per subunit.SUBUNIT Homodimer.SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Expressed in olfactory mucosa epithelium (at protein level). Detected in skin.MISCELLANEOUS AOX genes evolved from a xanthine oxidoreductase ancestral precursor via a series of gene duplication and suppression/deletion events. Different animal species contain a different complement of AOX genes encoding an equivalent number of AOX isoenzymes. In mammals, the two extremes are represented by certain rodents such as mice and rats, which are endowed with 4 AOX genes, and by humans, whose genome is characterized by a single active gene (PubMed:23263164).SIMILARITY Belongs to the xanthine dehydrogenase family.
