Name
GO

Identifier	Name	Description
GO:0009987	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:0006575	modified amino acid metabolic process	The chemical reactions and pathways involving compounds derived from amino acids, organic acids containing one or more amino substituents.
GO:0006577	amino-acid betaine metabolic process	The chemical reactions and pathways involving any betaine, the N-trimethyl derivative of an amino acid.
