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.

textThe BHC (BRAF-HDAC) complex is involved in the repression of neuronal-specific genes during development. It is recruited by RE1-silencing transcription factor (REST) to mediate the repression of REST-responsive genes. The BHC complex includes histone deacetylases (HDACs) 1 and 2, and the histone demethylase KDM1A (also knowns as BHC110, LSD1 or AOF2). KDM1A demethylates both Lys-4 (H3K4me) and Lys-9 (H3K9me) of histone H3, acting as a coactivator or a corepressor, depending on the context. Corepressor for element-1-silencing transcription factor (CoREST) is an essential component of the BHC complex, enhancing the association with nucleosomes (Lee et al. 2005).

REST is a modular transcriptional regulator that recruits CoREST and other regulatory cofactors to activate or repress transcription through dynamic epigenetic mechanisms (Ballas & Mandel 2005).
