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 FecA is the outer membrane receptor protein in the Fe(3+) dicitrate transport system.SUBUNIT Interacts (via periplasmic N-terminus) with FecR (via periplasmic C-terminus).INTERACTION For induction, the TonB and the ExbB proteins have to be active. Regulation by the iron level mediated by the Fur protein and induction by citrate plus iron suggest that the Fe(3+) dicitrate complex must enter the periplasm where it binds to a transmembrane protein, which regulates transcription of the fec genes directly or via a further inductor. Induced 2-fold by hydroxyurea (PubMed:20005847).SIMILARITY Belongs to the TonB-dependent receptor family.
