Mouse Gene Set: GOBP_SKELETAL_MUSCLE_FIBER_DIFFERENTIATION

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

Standard name GOBP_SKELETAL_MUSCLE_FIBER_DIFFERENTIATION
Systematic name MM10309
Brief description The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a skeletal muscle fiber cell. Skeletal muscle fiber differentiation starts with myoblast fusion and the appearance of specific cell markers (this is the cell development step). Then individual skeletal muscle fibers fuse to form bigger myotubes and start to contract. [GOC:dos]
