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. |

|
biological regulation
|
Any process that modulates a measurable attribute of any biological process, quality or function. |
GO:0050794
|
regulation of cellular process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. |
GO:0050789
|
regulation of biological process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a biological process. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule. |
GO:0048522
|
positive regulation of cellular process
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. |
GO:0048518
|
positive regulation of biological process
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of a biological process. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule. |
GO:0032502
|
developmental process
|
A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an integrated living unit: an anatomical structure (which may be a subcellular structure, cell, tissue, or organ), or organism over time from an initial condition to a later condition. |
GO:0048869
|
cellular developmental process
|
A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a cell over time from an initial condition to a later condition. |
GO:0030154
|
cell differentiation
|
The cellular developmental process in which a relatively unspecialized cell, e.g. embryonic or regenerative cell, acquires specialized structural and/or functional features that characterize a specific cell. Differentiation includes the processes involved in commitment of a cell to a specific fate and its subsequent development to the mature state. |
GO:0051094
|
positive regulation of developmental process
|
Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of development, the biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote, or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). |
GO:0050793
|
regulation of developmental process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of development, the biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a multicellular organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote, or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). |
GO:0045595
|
regulation of cell differentiation
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cell differentiation, the process in which relatively unspecialized cells acquire specialized structural and functional features. |
GO:0045597
|
positive regulation of cell differentiation
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cell differentiation. |
GO:0048066
|
developmental pigmentation
|
The developmental process that results in the deposition of coloring matter in an organism, tissue or cell. |
GO:0043473
|
pigmentation
|
The accumulation of pigment in an organism, tissue or cell, either by increased deposition or by increased number of cells. |
GO:0050931
|
pigment cell differentiation
|
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of a pigmented cell, such as a melanocyte. |
GO:0030318
|
melanocyte differentiation
|
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a melanocyte. |
GO:0045634
|
regulation of melanocyte differentiation
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of melanocyte differentiation. |
GO:0050932
|
regulation of pigment cell differentiation
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of pigmented cell differentiation. |
GO:0120305
|
regulation of pigmentation
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the deposition or modulates the distribution of coloring matter in an organism. |
GO:0048070
|
regulation of developmental pigmentation
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the developmental process that results in the deposition of coloring matter in an organism. |
GO:0050942
|
positive regulation of pigment cell differentiation
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of pigment cell differentiation. |
GO:0045636

|
early stripe melanocyte differentiation
|
The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of an early stripe melanocyte (ESM). In zebrafish, ESMs develop during the first phase (2-3 weeks of development) of the larva to adult transition (2-4 weeks of development). |
