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.

textStearoyl-CoA desaturase 5 (SCD5, also known as acyl-CoA desaturase 4), located on the ER membrane, utilises O2 and electrons from reduced ferrocytochrome b5 (Fe(2+)Cb5) to catalyse the insertion of a double bond into a range of fatty acyl-CoA substrates. SCD5 is most abundant in brain and pancreas. The reaction annotated here shows stearoyl-CoA (ST-CoA) desaturation to oleoyl-CoA (OLE-CoA). Studies of tagged recombinant enzyme overexpressed in transiently transfected cells suggest that the enzyme forms dimers and higher oligomers (Wang et al. 2005; Zhang et al. 2005).
