Term Information

Accession: GO:0000755
Name: cytogamy
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: zygote formation
Alternate IDs: GO:0000218, GO:0030462
Definition: During conjugation with cellular fusion, the process resulting in creating a single cell from complementary mating types. The localized remodeling and dissolution of external protective structures allow the fusion of the plasma membranes and cytoplasmic mixing. An example of this process is found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Source: GOC:elh
