Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_EXCITATORY_POSTSYNAPTIC_POTENTIAL


Standard name GOBP_EXCITATORY_POSTSYNAPTIC_POTENTIAL
Systematic name MM16274
Brief description A process that leads to a temporary increase in postsynaptic potential due to the flow of positively charged ions into the postsynaptic cell. The flow of ions that causes an EPSP is an excitatory postsynaptic current (EPSC) and makes it easier for the neuron to fire an action potential. [GOC:dph, GOC:ef]
