primary neural tube formation

Term Information

Accession
GO:0014020
Name
primary neural tube formation
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
primary neural tube morphogenesis, primary neurulation, neural rod cavitation
Alternate IDs
GO:0014024
Definition
The formation of the neural tube from an epithelial cell sheet (the neuroepithelium or neural plate). In primary neurulation, the cells surrounding the neural plate direct the neural plate cells to proliferate, invaginate, and pinch off from the surface to form a hollow epithelial tube. Primary neurulation is the typical mechanism of formation of the anterior neural tube. Source: PMID:15327780, GOC:ef, ISBN:0878932585
