Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_PHAGOCYTOSIS

For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_PHAGOCYTOSIS

Standard name GOBP_PHAGOCYTOSIS
Systematic name MM4904
Brief description A vesicle-mediated transport process that results in the engulfment of external particulate material by phagocytes and their delivery to the lysosome. The particles are initially contained within phagocytic vacuoles (phagosomes), which then fuse with primary lysosomes to effect digestion of the particles. [ISBN:0198506732]
