General Information
Term leukocyte differentiation ID (Ontology) GO:0002521 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The process in which a relatively unspecialized hemopoietic precursor cell acquires the specialized features of a leukocyte. A leukocyte is an achromatic cell of the myeloid or lymphoid lineages capable of ameboid movement, found in blood or other tissue.[ PubMed:16551264 ]
Also Known As "immune cell differentiation" ; "leucocyte differentiation"
