Human Gene Set: GOBP_NECROPTOTIC_PROCESS

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_NECROPTOTIC_PROCESS

Standard name GOBP_NECROPTOTIC_PROCESS
Systematic name M46836
Brief description A programmed necrotic cell death process which begins when a cell receives a signal (e.g. a ligand binding to a death receptor or to a Toll-like receptor), and proceeds through a series of biochemical events (signaling pathways), characterized by activation of receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 and/or 3 (RIPK1/3, also called RIP1/3) and by critical dependence on mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL), and which typically lead to common morphological features of necrotic cell death. The process ends when the cell has died. The process is divided into a signaling phase, and an execution phase, which is triggered by the former.
