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.

textLANA1 forms oligomers that, based on in vitro studies, are likely decameric rings composed of a pentamer of LANA1 dimers, which interact with DNA through the outer ring surface (Domsic et al. 2013; Hellert et al. 2013). A further in vitro study has shown that LANA1 may form higher-order oligomers in the form of right-handed continuous spirals with ~5 LANA dimers per turn, which may contribute to the so-called LANA speckles, subnuclear HHV8 microdomains that are a hallmark of HHV8 latency (Hellert et al. 2015). The inner surface of LANA1 rings is positively charged, like the outer surface, and it was proposed that the inner surface is involved in non-specific interactions with the DNA, while the outer surface is involved in sequence-specific interactions (Hellert et al. 2015). The inner diameter of the LANA1 ring and the LANA1 spiral is sufficiently large to accommodate double-stranded DNA (Hellert et al. 2015).
