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 Glutamate-gated chloride channel subunit; channel properties depend on the subunit composition. Glutamate binding triggers a rapidly reversible current in heteromeric channels formed by glc-1 and glc-2, while the anti-helmintic drug ivermectin and other avermectins trigger a permanently open channel configuration. Channels containing only glc-1 are activated by ivermectin, but not by glutamate alone (in vitro). The heteromeric channel formed by glc-1 and glc-2 is also activated by ibotenate, and it is blocked by picrotoxin and flufenamic acid (PubMed:7935817). Plays a role in the regulation of locomotor behavior (PubMed:16527366).SUBUNIT Pentamer (PubMed:21572436, PubMed:25143115). Homooligomer, forms functional heterooligomers with glc-2 (PubMed:7935817).INTERACTION Glutamate binding is mediated by the extracellular domain. In contrast, the allosteric modulator ivermectin binds between subunits at the periphery of the transmembrane domain, proximal to the extracellular side.DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE RNAi-mediated knockdown causes a decrease in the duration of forward locomotion in the absence of food, and an increase in the frequency of turns.SIMILARITY Belongs to the ligand-gated ion channel (TC 1.A.9) family. Glutamate-gated chloride channel (TC 1.A.9.4) subfamily.
