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 Transcription factor that binds to the promoter and the enhancer regions of target genes (By similarity). Regulates expression of genes involved in fat metabolism, including ech-1.1 and fat-5 (PubMed:26505800). Has a protective role in response to infection by the Gram-negative bacterium P.aeruginosa (PubMed:26876169, PubMed:28662060, PubMed:34804026). Required for the activation of infection response gene irg-1 following P.aeruginosa infection (PubMed:26876169). Required to prevent P.aeruginosa ToxA-mediated lethality (PubMed:26876169). May also function in concert with transcription factor zip-11 to mediate immune responses, independently of the pmk-1/p38 MAPK pathway (PubMed:34804026). May act together with the bZIP transcription factor, zip-2 (PubMed:26876169).SUBUNIT Interacts with transcription factor zip-11.INTERACTION Expressed broadly in somatic tissues including the intestine.DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE RNAi-mediated knockdown reduces overall fat content (PubMed:26505800). Decreases survival upon infection with P.aeruginosa (PubMed:26876169, PubMed:28662060). Reduces induction of expression of infection response gene, irg-1, in response to P.aeruginosa (PubMed:26876169). The decrease in survival upon P.aeruginosa infection on a zip-11 mutant background is abolished by RNAi-mediated knockdown of cebp-2.SIMILARITY Belongs to the bZIP family. C/EBP subfamily.
