For the Human gene set with the same name, see GOBP_ENSHEATHMENT_OF_NEURONS

Standard name GOBP_ENSHEATHMENT_OF_NEURONS
Systematic name MM5053
Brief description The process in which glial cells envelop neuronal cell bodies and/or axons to form an insulating layer. This can take the form of myelinating or non-myelinating ensheathment. [GOC:dgh, GOC:dph, GOC:tb]
