|
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: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:0006119
|
oxidative phosphorylation
|
The phosphorylation of ADP to ATP that accompanies the oxidation of a metabolite through the operation of the respiratory chain. Oxidation of compounds establishes a proton gradient across the membrane, providing the energy for ATP synthesis. |
|
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:0009060
|
aerobic respiration
|
The enzymatic release of energy from inorganic and organic compounds (especially carbohydrates and fats) which requires oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor. |
|
GO:0045333
|
cellular respiration
|
The enzymatic release of energy from inorganic and organic compounds (especially carbohydrates and fats) which either requires oxygen (aerobic respiration) or does not (anaerobic respiration). |
|
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:0022904
|
respiratory electron transport chain
|
A process in which a series of electron carriers operate together to transfer electrons from donors such as NADH and FADH2 to any of several different terminal electron acceptors to generate a transmembrane electrochemical gradient. |
|
GO:0022900
|
electron transport chain
|
A process in which a series of electron carriers operate together to transfer electrons from donors to any of several different terminal electron acceptors. |
|
GO:0019646
|
aerobic electron transport chain
|
A process in which a series of electron carriers operate together to transfer electrons from donors such as NADH and FADH2 to oxygen to generate a transmembrane electrochemical gradient. |
|
GO:0006120
|
mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone
|
The transfer of electrons from NADH to ubiquinone that occurs during oxidative phosphorylation. |
|
GO:0042775
|
mitochondrial ATP synthesis coupled electron transport
|
The transfer of electrons through a series of electron donors and acceptors, generating energy that is ultimately used for synthesis of ATP, as it occurs in the mitochondrial inner membrane or chloroplast thylakoid membrane. |
|
GO:0042773
|
ATP synthesis coupled electron transport
|
The transfer of electrons through a series of electron donors and acceptors, generating energy that is ultimately used for synthesis of ATP. |
