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.

textSLC26A4 (Pendrin, PDS) can mediate the efflux of iodide (I-) from the apical membranes of thyroid cells in exchange for a chloride (Cl-) ion, a function demonstrated in human HEK293 and monkey COS-7 cells (Yoshida et al., 2004; Dossena et al. 2006). SLC26A4 is highly expressed in the adult thyroid and its activity is necessary for production of thyroid hormone (Yoshida et al., 2004; Honda & Griffith, 2022). SLC26A4 is also expressed in the inner ear (Dossena et al. 2006; Honda & Griffith, 2022). Mutations in this gene are associated with Pendred syndrome, an autosomal-recessive disease which is one of the most common forms of syndromic deafness and associated goiter (Dossena et al. 2006; reviewed in Honda & Griffith, 2022).
