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.

textThe Beclin-1 complex (ATG14:PIK3C3:PIK3R4:BECN1) is essential for autophagosome formation (Matsunaga et al. 2009, 2010). PIK3C3 (VPS34), the catalytic component of this complex, is a class III phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase that phosphorylates phosphatidylinositol (PI) producing phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P). PIK3C3 is essential for the early stages of autophagy and colocalizes strongly with early autophagosome markers (Axe et al. 2008). The role of PI3P in autophagosome formation is to recruit WIPI2b (Dooley et al. 2014) a member of the WIPI family (Proikas-Cezanne et al. 2004, 2015, Polson et al. 2010).
