Planteome: Term Details for "urinary bladder smooth muscle contraction" (GO:0014832)

Accession: GO:0014832
Name: urinary bladder smooth muscle contraction
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A process in which force is generated within smooth muscle tissue, resulting in a change in muscle geometry. This process occurs in the urinary bladder. Force generation involves a chemo-mechanical energy conversion step that is carried out by the actin/myosin complex activity, which generates force through ATP hydrolysis. The urinary bladder is a musculomembranous sac along the urinary tract. Source: PMID:18276178, GOC:mtg_muscle, PMID:11768524, PMID:538956, GOC:mr
