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.

textCoimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain (CARD) (ASC, also known as PYCARD) interacted with the endogenous tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR)-associated factor 3 (TRAF3) in human monocytic THP-1 cells (Guan K et al. 2015). Upon NOD-, LRR- and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation, both TRAF3 and PYCARD (ASC) are recruited to the mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS) in mammalian cells (Subramanian N et al. 2013; Park S et al. 2013; Guan K et al. 2015; Han Y et al. 2018). TRAF3 binding to PYCARD occured in the MAVS-dependent manner (Guan K et al. 2015). The E3 ubiquitin ligase activity of TRAF3 modified PYCARD with K63-linked polyubiquitin chains (Guan K et al. 2015). Deficiency in MAVS or TRAF3 impaired PYCARD ubiquitination and cytosolic speck formation, and the subsequent inflammasome activation in THP-1 and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) cells in response to vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) infection (Guan K et al. 2015). Ubiquitination of PYCARD at Lys174 (K174) was indispensable for inflammasome activation in VSV-infected THP-1 and human embryonic kidney HEK293T cells transfected with wild type (WT) PYCARD or PYCARD K174R mutant (Guan K et al. 2015). Further, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 1 (SARS-CoV-1) open reading frame 3a protein is thought to facilitate TRAF3-mediated K63-linked polyubiquitination of PYCARD via a direct interaction with both TRAF3 and PYCARD (Siu KL et al. 2019).

The Reactome event shows TRAF3-mediated K63-linked polyubiquitination of PYCARD at K174 within the NLRP3 inflammasome complex on the outer mitochondrial membrane.
