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.

textKinesin-14 proteins have a C-terminal motor domain. At least four members of the group (Dm Ncd, Sc KAR3, Cg CHO2, At KCBP) have been demonstrated to be minus-end directed motors (Walker et al. 1990), in contrast to the usual plus-end directed motility of other kinesin proteins.

During spindle formation, Kinesin-14 cross-links antiparallel microtubules and slides them together (thereby generating inward forces) to balance the outward forces generated by plus-end-directed kinesins of the Kinesin-5 family. Kinesin-14 family members also gather microtubule minus-ends and focus them into spindle poles. Mutation or inhibition of Kinesin-14 family members often results in disordered or splayed meiotic spindle poles (Ambrose et al. 2005).
