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: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: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:0005975
|
carbohydrate metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving carbohydrates, any of a group of organic compounds based of the general formula Cx(H2O)y. |
|
GO:0005976
|
polysaccharide metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving a polysaccharide, a polymer of many (typically more than 10) monosaccharide residues linked glycosidically. |
|
GO:0006091
|
generation of precursor metabolites and energy
|
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of precursor metabolites, substances from which energy is derived, and any process involved in the liberation of energy from these substances. |
|
GO:0015980
|
energy derivation by oxidation of organic compounds
|
The chemical reactions and pathways by which a cell derives energy from organic compounds; results in the oxidation of the compounds from which energy is released. |
|
GO:0006112
|
energy reserve metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways by which a cell derives energy from stored compounds such as fats or glycogen. |
|
GO:0005977
|
glycogen metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving glycogen, a polydisperse, highly branched glucan composed of chains of D-glucose residues in alpha-(1->4) glycosidic linkage, joined together by alpha-(1->6) glycosidic linkages. |
|
GO:0044042
|
glucan metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving glucans, polysaccharides consisting only of glucose residues. |
