AmiGO 2: Term Details for "membrane hyperpolarization" (GO:0060081)

Accession: GO:0060081
Name: membrane hyperpolarization
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process in which membrane potential increases with respect to its steady-state potential, usually from negative potential to a more negative potential. For example, during the repolarization phase of an action potential the membrane potential often becomes more negative or hyperpolarized before returning to the steady-state resting potential.
