Descriptor centrosoma
Entry term(s) región pericentriolar
Scope note: Centro celular que consiste en un par de CENTRIOLOS rodeados por una nube de material amorfo llamada región pericentriolar. Durante la interfase, los microtúbulos nucleados del centrosoma crecen más. En la profase, el centrosoma se duplica y se separa para formar los dos polos del huso mitótico (APARATO FUSIFORME MITÓTICO)

Scope note: The cell center, consisting of a pair of CENTRIOLES surrounded by a cloud of amorphous material called the pericentriolar region. During interphase, the centrosome nucleates microtubule outgrowth. The centrosome duplicates and, during mitosis, separates to form the two poles of the mitotic spindle (MITOTIC SPINDLE APPARATUS).
