| Name: | Kupffer's vesicle |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | ciliated organ of asymmetry |
| Definition: | Small but distinctive epithelial sac containing fluid, located midventrally posterior to the yolk cell or its extension, and transiently present during most of the segmentation period. Kupffer's vesicle has been compared to the mouse embryonic node. |
| Ontology: | Anatomy Ontology [ZFA:0000001] |
| Name: | epithelial cilium movement involved in determination of left/right asymmetry |
|---|---|
| Synonyms: | cilium movement involved in determinationof L/R asymmetry, Kuppfer's vesicle cilium movement involved in determination of left/right asymmetry, nodal cilium movement involved in determination of left/right asymmetry |
| Definition: | The movement of cilia of epithelial cells of the Left Right Organizer (LRO), also referred to as the node in mouse or the Kupffer's vesicle in zebrafish, resulting in the leftward fluid flow across the LRO and generation or transport of a signal which determines asymmetry in an organism's body plan with respect to the left and right halves. |

| Synonyms: | quality of a process, quality of occurrent, quality of process, relational quality of occurrent |
| Definition: | A quality which inheres in an process. |
