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.

textBased on mouse model studies, the JUN transcription factor undergoes biphasic activation in Alzheimer's disease. JUN is phosphorylated directly by p25-bound CDK5 at serine residues S63 and S73. CDK5:p25-mediated increase in the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) triggers activation of JNK kinases (MAPK8, MAPK9, MAPK10), which phosphorylate JUN at S63 and S73 at a later time point (Sun et al. 2009).

Aberrant activation of CDK5 by p25 binding also triggers activation of MKK6 (MAP2K6), a p38 MAP kinase. Levels of phosphorylated MAP2K6 are increased in Alzheimer's disease. Activation of p38 MAP kinase(s) results in increased JUN expression (Chang et al. 2010).
