septation initiation signaling cascade

id: GO:0031028
name: septation initiation signaling cascade
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: The series of molecular signals, mediated by the small GTPase Ras, that results in the initiation of contraction of the contractile ring, at the beginning of cytokinesis and cell division by septum formation. The pathway coordinates chromosome segregation with mitotic exit and cytokinesis.
