smoothened signaling pathway involved in spinal cord motor neuron cell fate specification

Term ID

GO:0021776

Synonyms

• hedgehog signaling pathway involved in spinal cord motor neuron cell fate specification
• hh signaling pathway involved in spinal cord motor neuron cell fate specification
• smoothened signalling pathway involved in spinal cord motor neuron cell fate specification

Definition

The series of molecular signals initiated by binding of a ligand to the transmembrane receptor smoothened in a precursor cell in the spinal cord that contributes to the process of a precursor cell becoming capable of differentiating autonomously into a motor neuron in an environment that is neutral with respect to the developmental pathway. 15936325
