Details for T cell differentiation
Gene ontology ID
GO:0030217
Definition
The process in which a precursor cell type acquires characteristics of a more mature T-cell. A T cell is a type of lymphocyte whose definin characteristic is the expression of a T cell receptor complex
Comment
Note that the term 'thymocyte differentiation' was merged into this term because thymocytes are T cells, and thus the term was essentially redundant. Note that immunologists typically use the word 'development' to refer to cells of B or T cell lineages undergoing the process that GO describes as 'cell differentiation'.
Synonyms
1. T cell development
2. T lymphocyte differentiation
3. T-cell differentiation
4. T-lymphocyte differentiation
