cellular_component Term "centrosome" (GO:0005813)

Term Name	centrosome
Term Accession	GO:0005813
Aspect	cellular_component
Synonyms (0)	None.
Definition	A structure comprised of a core structure (in most organisms, a pair of centrioles) and peripheral material from which a microtubule-based structure, such as a spindle apparatus, is organized. Centrosomes occur close to the nucleus during interphase in many eukaryotic cells, though in animal cells it changes continually during the cell-division cycle.
