NCIt synonyms : Metabolic Network; Pathways;

NCIt related terms : Pathway; molecular pathway;

NCIt definition : A series of biochemical reactions which occurs in a known sequence and can result in all or part of the initiation, progression or completion of a biological process or function.;

Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A series of actions among molecules in a cell that leads to a certain end point or cell function.; BRIDG 5.3: A series of actions among molecules in or associated with a cell that leads to a certain product or a change in a cell.
