|
cytoplasm
|
The contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. |
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:0005622
|
intracellular anatomical structure
|
A component of a cell contained within (but not including) the plasma membrane. In eukaryotes it includes the nucleus and cytoplasm. |
GO:0110165
|
cellular anatomical structure
|
A part of a cellular organism consisting of a material entity with granularity above the level of a protein complex but below that of an anatomical system. Note that cellular organisms exclude viruses. |
GO:0005938
|
cell cortex
|
The region of a cell that lies just beneath the plasma membrane and often, but not always, contains a network of actin filaments and associated proteins. |
GO:0071944
|
cell periphery
|
The broad region around and including the plasma membrane of a cell, encompassing the cell cortex (inside the cell), the plasma membrane, and any external encapsulating structures. |
GO:0099568
|
cytoplasmic region
|
Any (proper) part of the cytoplasm of a single cell of sufficient size to still be considered cytoplasm. |
GO:0045177
|
apical part of cell
|
The region of a polarized cell that forms a tip or is distal to a base. For example, in a polarized epithelial cell, the apical region has an exposed surface and lies opposite to the basal lamina that separates the epithelium from other tissue. |
GO:0099738
|
cell cortex region
|
The complete extent of cell cortex that underlies some some region of the plasma membrane. |
GO:0045179
|
apical cortex
|
The region that lies just beneath the plasma membrane on the apical edge of a cell. |
