AmiGO 2: Term Details for "cellular response to ionizing radiation" (GO:0071479)

Accession: GO:0071479
Name: cellular response to ionizing radiation
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: cellular response to ionising radiation, cellular response to ionizing radiation stimulus
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a ionizing radiation stimulus. Ionizing radiation is radiation with sufficient energy to remove electrons from atoms and may arise from spontaneous decay of unstable isotopes, resulting in alpha and beta particles and gamma rays. Ionizing radiation also includes X-rays. Source: GOC:mah
