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 studies in mice, MECP2 represses IRAK1 gene transcription. MECP2-mediated regulation of IRAK1 gene expression may be limited to cortical neurons. IRAK1 is a serine/threonine protein kinase that activates NFKB-mediated transcription. Irak1 is upregulated in the cortex of Mecp2 null mice and some of the Rett syndorome features, such as reduced dendritic complexity and decreased life span, can be ameliorated by attenuation of Nfkb signaling (Kishi et al. 2016). MECP2 may also regulate IRAK1 levels indirectly, by up-regulating microRNA miR-146a, which targets IRAK1 mRNA (Urdinguio et al. 2010).
