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 Kininogens are inhibitors of thiol proteases. HMW-kininogen plays an important role in blood coagulation by helping to position optimally prekallikrein and factor XI next to factor XII; HMW-kininogen inhibits the thrombin- and plasmin-induced aggregation of thrombocytes. LMW-kininogen inhibits the aggregation of thrombocytes. LMW-kininogen is in contrast to HMW-kininogen not involved in blood clotting.FUNCTION The active peptide bradykinin is a potent vasodilatator that is released from HMW-kininogen shows a variety of physiological effects: (A) influence in smooth muscle contraction, (B) induction of hypotension, (C) natriuresis and diuresis, (D) decrease in blood glucose level, (E) it is a mediator of inflammation and causes (E1) increase in vascular permeability, (E2) stimulation of nociceptors (4E3) release of other mediators of inflammation (e.g. prostaglandins), (F) it has a cardioprotective effect (directly via bradykinin action, indirectly via endothelium-derived relaxing factor action).SUBUNIT Interacts (high molecular weight kininogen) (via amino acids 402-532) with triafestin-1 and triafestin-2, anticoagulant proteins from Triatoma infestans (PubMed:17645545). Interacts (high molecular weight kininogen) (via amino acids 402-532) with short form salivary protein D7R1, an anticoagulant protein from Anopheles stephensi (PubMed:17645545). Interacts (high molecular weight kininogen) (via amino acids 421-466 and 459-513) with haemaphysalin, an anticoagulant protein from Haemaphysalis longicornis (PubMed:15711755, PubMed:16169873).INTERACTION Secreted in plasma. T-kinin is detected in malignant ovarian, colon and breast carcinomas, but not in benign tumors.PTM Bradykinin is inactivated by ACE, which removes the dipeptide Arg-Phe from its C-terminus.PTM Bradykinin is released from kininogen by plasma kallikrein.PTM Hydroxylation of Pro-383 occurs prior to the release of bradykinin.PTM Phosphorylated by FAM20C in the extracellular medium.PTM N- and O-glycosylated. O-glycosylated with core 1 or possibly core 8 glycans.PTM (Microbial infection) Bradykinin is generated upon proteolytic cleavage by S.pyogenes SpeB to produce hypotension during septic shock.POLYMORPHISM The T-kinin peptide is missing residues 378 to 380, probably as a result of a naturally occurring variant. The complete sequence of the T-kinin peptide is therefore ISRPPGFSPFR. This peptide is associated with malignant tumors but not with benign ones.DISEASE The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.DISEASE The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.ONLINE INFORMATION High molecular weight kininogen entry
