AmiGO 2: Term Details for "endothelial tip cell fate specification" (GO:0097102)

Accession: GO:0097102
Name: endothelial tip cell fate specification
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: angiogenic tip cell fate specification
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process involved in the specification of identity of an endothelial tip cell. Once specification has taken place, a cell will be committed to differentiate down a specific pathway if left in its normal environment. An endothelial tip cell is a specialized endothelial cell localized to the leading edge of an angiogenic sprout that senses extracellular signals and guides the directed growth of blood vessels.
