| Name: | nucleotide-binding domain, leucine rich repeat containing receptor signaling pathway |

| Synonyms: | NLR signaling pathway, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway, nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat containing receptor signaling pathway, nucleotide-binding domain, leucine rich repeat containing receptor signal transduction, nucleotide-binding domain, leucine rich repeat containing receptor signal transduction pathway, nucleotide-binding domain, leucine rich repeat containing receptor signalling pathway |
| Definition: | The series of molecular signals initiated by a ligand binding to a nucleotide-binding domain, leucine rich repeat containing receptor (NLR), and ending with the regulation of a downstream cellular process. NLRs are cytoplasmic receptors defined by their tripartite domain architecture that contains: a variable C-terminus, a middle nucleotide-binding domain, and a LRR domain that is variable in the repeats composition and number. |
