| Note: | This phenotype statement describes a gene expression or antibody labeling pattern. Anatomy terms are combined with a gene or antibody and phenotype quality. |
EXPRESSION ANATOMY:
| Name: | notochord outer sheath cell |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | notochord sheath cell |
| Definition: | Cells that form an epithelial-like sheath around the vacuolated inner notochord cells. Outer cells secrete a thick extracellular perinotochordal basement membrane. |

| Name: | vacuole |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | vacuolar carboxypeptidase Y |
| Definition: | A closed structure, found only in eukaryotic cells, that is completely surrounded by unit membrane and contains liquid material. Cells contain one or several vacuoles, that may have different functions from each other. Vacuoles have a diverse array of functions. They can act as a storage organelle for nutrients or waste products, as a degradative compartment, as a cost-effective way of increasing cell size, and as a homeostatic regulator controlling both turgor pressure and pH of the cytosol. |
