Term Information

Accession
GO:0007425
Name
epithelial cell fate determination, open tracheal system
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
tracheal epithelial cell fate determination, tracheal placode cell fate determination, tracheal cell fate determination
Alternate IDs
GO:0046846
Definition
The cell fate determination process in which a cell becomes capable of differentiating autonomously into an epithelial cell within an open tracheal system regardless of its environment; upon determination, the cell fate cannot be reversed. Tracheal cells are set aside as 10 clusters of approximately 80 cells on each side of the embryo (termed tracheal placodes). An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster.
