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.

textBy liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) mapping of in vivo and in vitro (using CCNB1:CDK1 complex) CDK1-dependent phosphorylation sites in human BORA during G2 phase in human cells, nine evolutionarily conserved residues were identified, reported at least once in vivo and once in vitro: T15, S27, S41, T52, S112, S252, S274, S278, and S375 (Thomas et al. 2016). The N-terminal fragment of BORA, consisting of the first 225 amino acids, was found to be sufficient to support PLK1 activation, and, of the CDK1-dependent phospho sites, S41 and S112 were found to be particularly important (Thomas et al. 2016). BORA was not detected in the CCNA2 co-immunoprecipitate 4 hours after release of the double thymidine block, but was detected in the CCNB1 co-immunoprecipitate, although both CCNA2:CDK1 and CCNB1:CDK1 are active at the 4 h mark, implicating CCNB1:CDK1 as the main BORA kinase (Thomas et al. 2016). However, BORA was recovered from the cytosolic CCNA2 co-immunoprecipitate at the start of G2 (Silva Cascales et al. 2021) and was shown to be phosphorylated in vitro by CCNA2:CDK2 complex (Silva Cascales et al. 2021, Tavernier et al. 2021). As CDK1 is critical for in vivo cytosolic localization of CCNA2 at the start of G2 phase, and as cytosolic localization of CCNA2 is critical for BORA-mediated PLK1 activation, it is plausible that CCNA:CDK1 complexes perform the initial phosphorylation of BORA, and that CCNB:CDK1 becomes the predominant BORA kinase later in G2 (Silva Cascales et al. 2021). In Xenopus egg extracts, Ccna:Cdk1 mediates phosphorylation of Bora on a conserved residue S110 (corresponds to S112 in human BORA), which promotes Aurka-mediated phosphorylation of Plx1 (Xenopus Plk1 homologue) (Vigneron et al. 2018). In both Xenopus egg extracts (Vigneron et al. 2018) and cycling human cells (Gheghiani et al. 2017, Silva Cascales et al. 2021) activation of CCNA:CDK1 complexes precedes and stimulates the activation of PLK1, which precedes and stimulates the activation of CCNB:CDK1.
