General Information

Term

cardiac cell fate specification

ID (Ontology)

GO:0060912 (Gene Ontology)

Definition

The process involved in the specification of cardiac cell identity. Once specification has taken place, a cell will be committed to differentiate down a specific pathway if left in its normal environment.

Also Known As

"cardiocyte cell fate specification"
