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 Protein adapter that acts as an essential executor of PIWIL4-piRNA pathway directed transposon DNA methylation and silencing in the male embryonic germ cells (PubMed:32674113, PubMed:38359823, PubMed:39294378). Recruited to young transposons, which are specifically marked with histone H3 trimethylated at both 'Lys-4' and 'Lys-9' (H3K4me3K9me3), via its association with SPIN1 chromatin reader, and associates with the de novo DNA methylation machinery and repressive chromatin remodeling complexes (PubMed:32674113, PubMed:39294378). Following this, PIWIL4 engages with nascent transposable element transcript to direct piRNA-directed DNA methylation (PubMed:39294378). Not required for piRNA biosynthesis (PubMed:32674113).SUBUNIT Interacts with DNMT3A, DNMT3C and DNMT3L (PubMed:32674113). Interacts with C19orf84 homolog (PubMed:38359823). Interacts with SPIN1; promoting recruitment to transposons marked with histone H3 trimethylated at both 'Lys-4' and 'Lys-9' (H3K4me3K9me3) (PubMed:39294378).SUBCELLULAR LOCATION Detected in embryonic testis at 14.5 dpc and decreases by postnatal day 5.DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE Male mice are infertile with spermatozoa completely absent in the epididymis (PubMed:32674113). Male germ cells show derepression of transposable elements (TEs) and DNA hypomethylation of TEs (PubMed:32674113).
