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'.
