| GO:0051899 | Name | membrane depolarization | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Definition | The process in which membrane potential decreases with respect to its steady-state potential, usually from negative potential to a more positive potential. For example, the initial depolarization during the rising phase of an action potential is in the direction from the negative steady-state resting potential towards the positive membrane potential that will be the peak of the action potential. | |||
