Name: intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway by p53 class mediator
Synonyms: intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway by signal transduction by p53 class mediator, signal transduction by p53 class mediator resulting in induction of apoptosis
Definition: The series of molecular signals in which an intracellular signal is conveyed to trigger the apoptotic death of a cell. The pathway is induced by the cell cycle regulator phosphoprotein p53, or an equivalent protein, and ends when the execution phase of apoptosis is triggered.
