GO Term : GO:0044551 venom-mediated vasodilation GO

Namespace  biological_process Obsolete  false
Description  A process in which an organism initiates, promotes, or enhances the widening of blood vessels by small muscles in their walls in another organism via the action of a venom, concomittantly reducing blood pressure in the bitten/stung organism.

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:0044419 biological process involved in interspecies interaction between organisms Any process evolved to enable an interaction with an organism of a different species.
GO:0035821 modulation of process of another organism A process in which an organism effects a change in a biological process in another organism.
GO:0035738 venom-mediated perturbation of biological process A process by which an organism alters or subverts a biological process in another organism via the action of a venom. Venoms are injected into the prey by a bite or a sting. Venoms cause their biological effects via the many toxins that they contain; some venoms are complex mixtures of toxins of differing types. Venoms can serve as predation mechanisms or defense responses.
GO:0140134 venom-mediated perturbation of blood circulation A process in which an organism alters or subverts the circulation of blood in another organism via the action of a venom.
GO:0044551 venom-mediated vasodilation A process in which an organism initiates, promotes, or enhances the widening of blood vessels by small muscles in their walls in another organism via the action of a venom, concomittantly reducing blood pressure in the bitten/stung organism.
