Frizzled Nuclear Import pathway

Term ID

GO:0140709

Synonyms

• FNI
• Frizzled Nuclear Import Wnt Pathway

Definition

A type of non-canonical Wnt signaling in which Wnt binding to its receptor on the surface a the target cell results in internalization and cleavage of the frizzled receptor to yield a C-terminal fragment that is imported into the nucleus. The frizzled C-terminal fragment is incorporated into large ribonucleoprotein particles and stimulates their egress via nuclear budding. (2)
