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.

textGenetic studies in S. cerevisiae indicate that wild-type Cdc6 function is required for correctly timed loading of Mcm2-7 onto ORC. Biochemical studies indicate that the human and Xenopus Cdc6 proteins likewise are required for Mcm2-7 loading, and that they are ATPase switches. Specifically, Cdc6 may function as a clamp loader, assembling Mcm2-7 onto DNA in an ATP-dependent reaction. All known Cdc6 proteins have the Walker A and Walker B sequence motifs characteristic of the AAA+ superfamily of ATPases. As expected for an AAA+ protein, human Cdc6 binds and slowly hydrolyzes ATP in vitro. ATP hydrolysis was disrupted by mutations of the Walker B motif, while both binding and hydrolysis were disrupted by Walker A mutations. Microinjection of either mutant protein into HeLa cells blocked their progression through S phase. Both wild-type and mutant proteins can dimerize in vitro, and studies with Xenopus egg extracts suggest that Cdc6 functions in vivo as a dimer or larger multimer. In Xenopus extracts depleted of Cdc6 and reconstituted with either mutant protein, recruitment of Mcm2-7 to chromatin failed.
