Identifier	Name	Description
GO:0051179	localization	Any process in which a cell, a substance, or a cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, is transported, tethered to or otherwise maintained in a specific location. In the case of substances, localization may also be achieved via selective degradation.
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:0051234	establishment of localization	Any process that localizes a substance or cellular component. This may occur via movement, tethering or selective degradation.
GO:0006810	transport	The directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) or cellular components (such as complexes and organelles) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, or within a multicellular organism by means of some agent such as a transporter or a transporter complex, a pore or a motor protein.
GO:0036094	small molecule binding	Binding to a small molecule, any low molecular weight, monomeric, non-encoded molecule.
GO:0005488	binding	The selective, non-covalent, often stoichiometric, interaction of a molecule with one or more specific sites on another molecule.
GO:0140104	molecular carrier activity	Directly binding to a specific ion or molecule and delivering it either to an acceptor molecule or to a specific location.
GO:0005344	oxygen carrier activity	Binding to oxygen and delivering it to an acceptor molecule or a specific location.
GO:0015671	oxygen transport	The directed movement of oxygen (O2) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.
GO:0019825	oxygen binding	Binding to oxygen (O2).
GO:0015669	gas transport	The directed movement of substances that are gaseous in normal living conditions into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.
