Accession
GO:0042492
Name
gamma-delta T cell differentiation
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
gamma-delta T lymphocyte differentiation, gamma-delta T-cell differentiation, gamma-delta T-lymphocyte differentiation, gamma-delta T cell development
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
The process in which a relatively unspecialized hemopoietic cell acquires specialized features of a gamma-delta T cell. A gamma-delta T cell is a T cell that expresses a gamma-delta T cell receptor complex. Source: GOC:jl, CL:0000798
Comment
Note that immunologists typically use the word 'development' to refer to cells of B or T cell lineages undergoing the process that GO describes as 'cell differentiation'.
