Human Gene Set: GOBP_MYOBLAST_FUSION

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_MYOBLAST_FUSION

Standard name GOBP_MYOBLAST_FUSION
Systematic name M16873
Brief description A process in which non-proliferating myoblasts fuse to existing fibers or to myotubes to form new fibers. A myoblast is a mononucleate cell type that, by fusion with other myoblasts, gives rise to the myotubes that eventually develop into skeletal muscle fibers. [CL:0000056, GOC:mtg_muscle]
