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.

| text | SLC40A1 (MTP1 aka ferroportin or IREG1) is highly expressed on macrophages where it mediates iron efflux from the breakdown of haem (Schimanski et al. 2005). SLC40A1 colocalizes with ceruloplasmin (CP) which stablizes SLC40A1 and is necessary for the efflux reaction to occur (Texel et al. 2008). Six copper ions are required as cofactor. Ceruloplasmin (CP) also catalyses the conversion of iron from ferrous (Fe2+) to ferric form (Fe3+), thereby assisting in its transport in the plasma in association with transferrin, which can only carry iron in the ferric state. As well as being expressed on macrophages, SLC40A1 is also highly expressed in the duodenum, placenta (where it may mediate the transport of iron from maternal to foetal circulation), muscle and spleen. |
