GO:0032991
|
protein-containing complex
|
A stable assembly of two or more macromolecules, i.e. proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates or lipids, in which at least one component is a protein and the constituent parts function together. |
GO:0005575
|
cellular_component
|
A location, relative to cellular compartments and structures, occupied by a macromolecular machine. There are three types of cellular components described in the gene ontology: (1) the cellular anatomical entity where a gene product carries out a molecular function (e.g., plasma membrane, cytoskeleton) or membrane-enclosed compartments (e.g., mitochondrion); (2) virion components, where viral proteins act, and (3) the stable macromolecular complexes of which gene product are parts (e.g., the clathrin complex). |
GO:0005732
|
sno(s)RNA-containing ribonucleoprotein complex
|
A ribonucleoprotein complex that contains an RNA molecule of the snoRNA family and associated proteins. Many are involved in a step of processing of rRNA molecules: cleavage, 2'-O-methylation, or pseudouridylation, but other RNA types can be targets as well. The majority fall into one of two classes, box C/D type or box H/ACA type, which are conserved across eukaryotes and archaea. Other members include the telomerase RNA and the ribonuclease MRP RNA. |
GO:1990904
|
ribonucleoprotein complex
|
A macromolecular complex that contains both RNA and protein molecules. |
GO:0170049
|
box C/D RNP complex
|
A ribonucleoprotein complex consisting of a box C/D type snRNA and three (Archaea) or four (Eukaryotes) core proteins that have diverse functions, including site-specific methylation of rRNA and processing rRNA. |
GO:0031428
|
box C/D methylation guide snoRNP complex
|
A ribonucleoprotein complex containing a box C/D type RNA that is capable of ribose-2'-O-methylation of target RNAs. Box C/D type RNAs are widespread in eukaryotes and in Archaea, suggesting that an RNA-based guide mechanism for directing specific RNA 2'-O-ribose methylations was present in the common ancestor of Archaea and Eukarya. |
