AmiGO 2: Term Details for "myoblast fusion" (GO:0007520)

Accession: GO:0007520
Name: myoblast fusion
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A process in which non-proliferating myoblasts fuse to existing fibers or to myotubes to form new fibers. A myoblast is a mononucleate cell type that, by fusion with other myoblasts, gives rise to the myotubes that eventually develop into skeletal muscle fibers. Source: GOC:mtg_muscle, CL:0000056
