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:0030443 term browser browse the term
Definition:any anomaly in the development of cartilaginous joints or growth centers between bones of the skull base by the formation of hyaline cartilage which is abundant during the growth phase and ultimately ossifies during skeletal maturation; synchondroses are composed of mirror-image growth plates with a central resting zone, proliferative zones, and hypertrophic zones on both sides; in mouse, there are two synchondroses in the midline cranial base, the sphenooccipital and presphenoidal synchondroses
Synonyms:exact_synonym: abnormal cranial synchondroses
