General Information
Term MDA-5 signaling pathway ID (Ontology) GO:0039530 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The series of molecular signals initiated by the binding of dsRNA from another organism to the cytoplasmic pattern recognition receptor (PRR) MDA-5 (also known as IFIH1). MDA-5 detects RNA synthesized during viral replication or shed by non-viral pathogens, and triggers a signaling pathway to protect the host against infection, for example by inducing the expression of cytokines.[ PubMed:19620789 PubMed:33087405 ]
Also Known As "IFIH1 signaling pathway" ; "MDA-5 signalling pathway" ; "melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 signaling pathway"
