Term Information

Accession: GO:0070062
Name: extracellular exosome
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: exosome, extracellular vesicular exosome
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A vesicle that is released into the extracellular region by fusion of the limiting endosomal membrane of a multivesicular body with the plasma membrane. Extracellular exosomes, also simply called exosomes, have a diameter of about 40-100 nm.
