GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 1350945
Species: Homo sapiens
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: MIR18A
Name: microRNA 18a
Acc ID: GO:0021522
Term: spinal cord motor neuron differentiation
Definition: The process in which neuroepithelial cells in the ventral neural tube acquire specialized structural and/or functional features of motor neurons. Motor neurons innervate an effector (muscle or glandular) tissue and are responsible for transmission of motor impulses from the brain to the periphery. Differentiation includes the processes involved in commitment of a cell to a specific fate.
Definition Source(s): GO_REF:0000021, GOC:cls, GOC:dgh, GOC:dph, GOC:jid, PMID:11262869
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.
