Planteome: Term Details for "cortical endoplasmic reticulum" (GO:0032541)

Accession: GO:0032541
Name: cortical endoplasmic reticulum
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: cortical ER, peripheral ER, peripheral endoplasmic reticulum, ER-PM peripheral junction
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A cortical network of highly dynamic tubules that are juxtaposed to the plasma membrane and undergo ring closure and tubule-branching movements. Source: PMID:10931860, GOC:se, PMID:17686782
Comment: The dynamic nature of the cortical ER and the movements it undergoes (branching and ring closure) has been shown in both yeast and mammalian cells, so appears highly conserved. (PMID:10931860)
