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.

commentFUNCTION Mitochondrial GTPase involved in mitochondrial trafficking (PubMed:16055062, PubMed:16717129, PubMed:22396657). Forms an essential protein complex with Milt that links Khc to mitochondria for light chain-independent, anterograde transport of mitochondria (PubMed:16717129). Required for axonal transport to synapses within nerve terminals (PubMed:16055062, PubMed:22396657). Required presynaptically but not postsynaptically at neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) (PubMed:16055062). Also involved in the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics by promoting drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission during high calcium conditions, and negatively regulating fission during normal conditions (PubMed:27716788).SUBUNIT Interacts with kinesin-associated protein milt (PubMed:14605208, PubMed:16717129). Interacts with vimar (PubMed:27716788).INTERACTION Flies die at early pupal stage and exhibit abnormal locomotion (PubMed:16055062). Mitochondria in muscles and neurons are abnormally distributed (PubMed:16055062). Instead of being transported into axons and dendrites, mitochondria accumulate in parallel rows in neuronal somata (PubMed:16055062). Mutant NMJs lack presynaptic mitochondria, but neurotransmitter release and acute Ca(2+) buffering is only impaired during prolonged stimulation (PubMed:16055062). RNAi-mediated knockdown perturbs mitochondrial distribution and dynamics (PubMed:27716788). RNAi-mediated knockdown in the dopaminergic (DA) neurons decreases mitochondrial length and mitochondrial flux, and mitochondria accumulate in the most distal boutons of the DA motor neuron nerve terminals (PubMed:22396657).SIMILARITY Belongs to the mitochondrial Rho GTPase family.
