Category:GO:0036090 ! cleavage furrow ingression
name: cleavage furrow ingression
namespace: biological_process
def: "Advancement of the cleavage furrow from the outside of the cell inward towards the center of the cell. The cleavage furrow acts as a 'purse string' which draws tight to separate daughter cells during cytokinesis and partition the cytoplasm between the two daughter cells. The furrow ingresses until a cytoplasmic bridge is formed." [PMID:15811947, PMID:20687468]
comment: Consider also annotating to 'contractile ring contraction involved in cell cycle cytokinesis ; GO:0000916'.
synonym: "cleavage furrow contraction" EXACT [PMID:3413069]
