GONUTS is under stress! The website is currently experiencing long-wait times and frequent time-outs due to the record number of students, groups, and annotations related to CACAO this semester. We are currently working on increasing performance -- please accept our apologies for the technical difficulties.
You can help reduce stress on the server by:
- not reloading pages frequently - this just adds
- opening links in new windows (so you can read the old page)
Category:GO:0030035 ! microspike assembly
name: microspike assembly
namespace: biological_process
def: "Formation of a microspike, a dynamic, actin-rich projection extending from the surface of a migrating animal cell." [ISBN:0815316194, PMID:11429692, PMID:12153987, PMID:19095735]
comment: Although in some literature 'microspike' and 'filopodium' are used synonymously, in GO microspike refers to a cell projection that is distinct from a filopodium. For the assembly of filopodia, use 'filopodium assembly ; GO:0046847'.
