MAMMALIAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Mouse Adult Gross Anatomy Ontology and Mammalian Phenotype Ontology are downloaded weekly from the Mouse Genome Informatics databases at Jackson Laboratories (ftp://ftp.informatics.jax.org/pub/reports/index.html). For more information about these ontologies, see the MGI Publications Page at http://www.informatics.jax.org/mgihome/other/publications.shtml.

Accession:MP:0004367 term browser browse the term
Definition:any structural anomaly in the melanocytes known to migrate from the neural crest during ontogeny to become located between the epithelial marginal cell layer and the mesodermal basal cell layer within the intrastrial space; the predominant cellular component of the electrogenic machinery that generates an endocochlear potential (80-100 mV)
Synonyms:exact_synonym: abnormal cochlear melanocytes;   abnormal otic melanocytes;   abnormal stria vascularis intermediate cells;   abnormal strial melanocytes
 broad_synonym: abnormal strial intermediate cells
 related_synonym: abnormal stria vascularis melanocytes
