WS297

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

GO Term : GO:0006932 substrate-dependent cell migration, cell contraction GO

Namespace  biological_process Obsolete  false
Description  The translocation of the cell body forward during cell migration, mediated by tractional force on its substrate and tension in the cortical cytoskeleton. Adhesions transmit propulsive forces and serve as traction points over which the cell moves.

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:0030029 actin filament-based process Any cellular process that depends upon or alters the actin cytoskeleton, that part of the cytoskeleton comprising actin filaments and their associated proteins.
GO:0048870 cell motility Any process involved in the controlled self-propelled movement of a cell that results in translocation of the cell from one place to another.
GO:0016477 cell migration The controlled self-propelled movement of a cell from one site to a destination guided by molecular cues.
GO:0001667 ameboidal-type cell migration Cell migration that is accomplished by extension and retraction of a pseudopodium.
GO:0070252 actin-mediated cell contraction The actin filament-based process in which cytoplasmic actin filaments slide past one another resulting in contraction of all or part of the cell body.
GO:0030048 actin filament-based movement Movement of organelles or other particles along actin filaments, or sliding of actin filaments past each other, mediated by motor proteins.
GO:0006929 substrate-dependent cell migration The orderly movement of a cell from one site to another along a substrate such as the extracellular matrix; the migrating cell forms a protrusion that attaches to the substrate.
GO:0060327 cytoplasmic actin-based contraction involved in cell motility The actin filament-based movement by which cytoplasmic actin filaments slide past one another resulting in a contraction that propels the cell from one place to another.
GO:0006932 substrate-dependent cell migration, cell contraction The translocation of the cell body forward during cell migration, mediated by tractional force on its substrate and tension in the cortical cytoskeleton. Adhesions transmit propulsive forces and serve as traction points over which the cell moves.
