Descriptor fragmentación del ADN
Entry term(s) degradación apoptósica del ADN
Scope note: Corte del ADN en porciones más cortas mediante DIVISIÓN DEL ADN endonucleótica en múltiples localizaciones. Incluye la fragmentación internucleosómica del ADN que, junto con la condensación de cromatina, se considera distintivo de la APOPTOSIS.
