Human Gene Set: GOBP_PHAGOCYTOSIS_ENGULFMENT

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

Standard name GOBP_PHAGOCYTOSIS_ENGULFMENT
Systematic name M45812
Brief description The internalization of bacteria, immune complexes and other particulate matter or of an apoptotic cell by phagocytosis, including the membrane and cytoskeletal processes required, which involves one of three mechanisms: zippering of pseudopods around a target via repeated receptor-ligand interactions, sinking of the target directly into plasma membrane of the phagocytosing cell, or induced uptake via an enhanced membrane ruffling of the phagocytosing cell similar to macropinocytosis.
