  1. The event types for all tasks, their core arguments used for the primary evaluation and optional arguments for secondary evaluation. Superscripts show the arguments and targets limited to a specific task for events present in multiple tasks. Starred events have in the EPI task a corresponding reverse event (e.g. Dephosphorylation) with identical argument types. The plus-sign indicates where multiple arguments of the same type are allowed for one event.
