[Term] id: CL:0002489 name: double negative thymocyte namespace: cell def: "A thymocyte that lacks expression of CD4 and CD8." [GOC:tfm, MP:0002407] ***synonym: "double negative T cell" BROAD [] is_a: CL:0000893 ! thymocyte intersection_of: CL:0000893 ! thymocyte intersection_of: lacks_plasma_membrane_part PR:000001004 ! CD4 intersection_of: lacks_plasma_membrane_part PR:000025402 ! T cell receptor co-receptor CD8
why is the synonym not exact?
Also, consider "CD4-CD8- T cell" as a syn, with source MP:0002407
Consider importing comments from MP:0002407 These are precursors to mature T cells; normally, they do not circulate, but are found in the thymus and they have not undergone rearrangement of the alpha and beta T cell receptor genes
