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 E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase which binds polysumoylated chains covalently attached to proteins and mediates 'Lys-6'-, 'Lys-11'-, 'Lys-48'- and 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination of those substrates and their subsequent targeting to the proteasome for degradation (PubMed:18408734, PubMed:19307308, PubMed:35013556). Regulates the degradation of several proteins including PML and the transcriptional activator PEA3 (PubMed:18408734, PubMed:19307308, PubMed:20943951). Involved in chromosome alignment and spindle assembly, it regulates the kinetochore CENPH-CENPI-CENPK complex by targeting polysumoylated CENPI to proteasomal degradation (PubMed:20212317). Regulates the cellular responses to hypoxia and heat shock through degradation of respectively EPAS1 and PARP1 (PubMed:19779455, PubMed:20026589). Alternatively, it may also bind DNA/nucleosomes and have a more direct role in the regulation of transcription for instance enhancing basal transcription and steroid receptor-mediated transcriptional activation (PubMed:12885770). Catalyzes ubiquitination of sumoylated PARP1 in response to PARP1 trapping to chromatin, leading to PARP1 removal from chromatin by VCP/p97 (PubMed:35013556).CATALYTIC ACTIVITY S-ubiquitinyl-[E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [acceptor protein]-L-lysine = [E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + N(6)-ubiquitinyl-[acceptor protein]-L-lysine.PATHWAY Protein modification; protein ubiquitination.SUBUNIT Homodimer (via RING-type zinc finger domain) (By similarity). Interacts with GSC2 (By similarity). Interacts with AR/the androgen receptor and TBP (By similarity). Interacts with TCF20 (By similarity). Interacts with PATZ1 (PubMed:10713105). Interacts with TRPS1; negatively regulates TRPS1 transcriptional repressor activity (PubMed:12885770). Interacts with PML (isoform PML-1, isoform PML-2, isoform PML-3, isoform PML-4, isoform PML-5 and isoform PML-6) (PubMed:15707587, PubMed:20943951, PubMed:23028697). Interacts with PRDM1/Blimp-1 (PubMed:28842558).INTERACTION Widely expressed at low levels in many tissues; highly expressed in testis.DOMAIN The SUMO interaction motifs (SIMs) mediates the binding to polysumoylated substrate.DOMAIN The RING-type zinc finger domain is required for the ubiquitination of polysumoylated substrates.PTM Sumoylated; conjugated by one or two SUMO1 moieties.PTM Autoubiquitinated.
