GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 731342
Species: Mus musculus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Utrn
Name: utrophin
Acc ID: GO:0031594
Term: neuromuscular junction
Definition: The junction between the axon of a motor neuron and a muscle fiber. In response to the arrival of action potentials, the presynaptic button releases molecules of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These diffuse across the cleft and transmit the signal to the postsynaptic membrane of the muscle fiber, leading to a change in post-synaptic potential.
Definition Source(s): GOC:nln
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
