Human Gene Set: GOBP_SUBSTANTIA_NIGRA_DEVELOPMENT


Standard name GOBP_SUBSTANTIA_NIGRA_DEVELOPMENT
Systematic name M13060
Brief description The progression of the substantia nigra over time from its initial formation until its mature state. The substantia nigra is the layer of gray substance that separates the posterior parts of the cerebral peduncles (tegmentum mesencephali) from the anterior parts; it normally includes a posterior compact part with many pigmented cells (pars compacta) and an anterior reticular part whose cells contain little pigment (pars reticularis).
