Term Information

Accession
GO:0097190
Name
apoptotic signaling pathway
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
apoptotic signalling pathway, induction of apoptosis by extracellular signals
Alternate IDs
GO:0008624
Definition
The series of molecular signals which triggers the apoptotic death of a cell. The pathway starts with reception of a signal, and ends when the execution phase of apoptosis is triggered. Source: GOC:mtg_apoptosis
Comment
This term can be used to annotate gene products involved in apoptotic events happening downstream of the cross-talk point between the extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways. The cross-talk starts when caspase-8 cleaves Bid and truncated Bid interacts with mitochondria. From this point on it is not possible to distinguish between extrinsic and intrinsic pathways.
