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 Has a direct antidiuretic action on the kidney, it also causes vasoconstriction of the peripheral vessels. Acts by binding to vasopressin receptors (V1bR/AVPR1B, V1aR/AVPR1A, and V2R/AVPR2).FUNCTION Specifically binds vasopressin.SUBUNIT Interacts with vasopressin receptors V1bR/AVPR1B (Ki=85 pM), V1aR/AVPR1A (Ki=0.6 nM) and V2R/AVPR2 (Ki=4.9 nM) (PubMed:18174156). Interacts with oxytocin receptor (OXTR) (Ki=110 nM) (PubMed:18174156).SUBUNIT (Microbial infection) May interact with SARS coronavirus-2/SARS-CoV-2; they may form a complex with secreted ACE2.INTERACTION The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.SIMILARITY Belongs to the vasopressin/oxytocin family.ONLINE INFORMATION Vasopressin entry
