Go to external page http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0035567

Term info

Label

non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway

Synonyms
  • beta-catenin-independent Wnt receptor signaling pathway
  • non-canonical Wnt receptor signaling pathway
  • non-canonical Wnt receptor signalling pathway
  • non-canonical Wnt-activated signaling pathway
comment

This term should only be used when Wnt receptor signaling occurs via a beta-catenin-independent route but the downstream effectors are unknown. If the downstream effectors are known, consider instead annotating to one of the children, or requesting a new term.
