cytokinesis GO:0033205 GO:0007104 cytokinesis involved in cell cycle Wikipedia:Cytokinesis cell cycle cytokinesis Note that this term should not be used for direct annotation. When annotating eukaryotic species, mitotic or meiotic cytokinesis should always be specified for manual annotation and for prokaryotic species use 'FtsZ-dependent cytokinesis ; GO:0043093' or Cdv-dependent cytokinesis ; GO:0061639. Also, note that cytokinesis does not necessarily result in physical separation and detachment of the two daughter cells from each other. http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go.owl GO:0016288 The division of the cytoplasm and the plasma membrane of a cell and its partitioning into two daughter cells.
