cellular process
|
Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. |
GO:0008150
|
biological_process
|
A biological process is the execution of a genetically-encoded biological module or program. It consists of all the steps required to achieve the specific biological objective of the module. A biological process is accomplished by a particular set of molecular functions carried out by specific gene products (or macromolecular complexes), often in a highly regulated manner and in a particular temporal sequence. |
GO:0003674
|
molecular_function
|
A molecular process that can be carried out by the action of a single macromolecular machine, usually via direct physical interactions with other molecular entities. Function in this sense denotes an action, or activity, that a gene product (or a complex) performs. |
GO:0003824
|
catalytic activity
|
Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic. |
GO:0016740
|
transferase activity
|
Catalysis of the transfer of a group, e.g. a methyl group, glycosyl group, acyl group, phosphorus-containing, or other groups, from one compound (generally regarded as the donor) to another compound (generally regarded as the acceptor). Transferase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 2. |
GO:0044238
|
primary metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving those compounds which are formed as a part of the normal anabolic and catabolic processes. These processes take place in most, if not all, cells of the organism. |
GO:0090304
|
nucleic acid metabolic process
|
Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleic acids. |
GO:0006139
|
nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process
|
Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides and nucleic acids. |
GO:0006259
|
DNA metabolic process
|
Any cellular metabolic process involving deoxyribonucleic acid. This is one of the two main types of nucleic acid, consisting of a long, unbranched macromolecule formed from one, or more commonly, two, strands of linked deoxyribonucleotides. |
GO:0008152
|
metabolic process
|
A cellular process consisting of the biochemical pathways by which a living organism transforms chemical substances. This includes including anabolism (biosynthetic process) and catabolism (catabolic process). Metabolic processes includes the transformation of small molecules, as well macromolecular processes such as DNA repair and replication, protein synthesis and degradation. |
GO:0043170
|
macromolecule metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving macromolecules, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass. |
GO:0140640
|
catalytic activity, acting on a nucleic acid
|
Catalytic activity that acts to modify a nucleic acid. |
GO:0140097
|
catalytic activity, acting on DNA
|
Catalytic activity that acts to modify DNA. |
GO:0009058
|
biosynthetic process
|
A cellular process consisting of the biochemical pathways by which a living organism synthesizes chemical substances. This typically represents the energy-requiring part of metabolism in which simpler substances are transformed into more complex ones. |
GO:0009059
|
macromolecule biosynthetic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a macromolecule, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass. |
GO:0016772
|
transferase activity, transferring phosphorus-containing groups
|
Catalysis of the transfer of a phosphorus-containing group from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor). |
GO:0141187
|
nucleic acid biosynthetic process
|
The biosynthetic process resulting in the formation of a nucleic acid. |
GO:0034654
|
nucleobase-containing compound biosynthetic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides and nucleic acids. |
GO:0016779
|
nucleotidyltransferase activity
|
Catalysis of the transfer of a nucleotidyl group from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor). |
GO:0003720
|
telomerase activity
|
Catalysis of the reaction: a 2'-deoxyribonucleoside 5'-triphosphate + DNA(n) = diphosphate + DNA(n+1) using an internal RNA template that encodes the telomeric repeat sequence. |
GO:0006278
|
RNA-templated DNA biosynthetic process
|
A DNA biosynthetic process that uses RNA as a template for RNA-dependent DNA polymerases (e.g. reverse transcriptase) that synthesize the new strand. |
GO:0071897
|
DNA biosynthetic process
|
The biosynthetic process resulting in the formation of DNA. |
GO:0003964
|
RNA-directed DNA polymerase activity
|
