| 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:0051179 | localization | Any process in which a cell, a substance, or a cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, is transported, tethered to or otherwise maintained in a specific location. In the case of substances, localization may also be achieved via selective degradation. |
| 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:0051640 | organelle localization | Any process in which an organelle is transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location. |
| GO:0051234 | establishment of localization | Any process that localizes a substance or cellular component. This may occur via movement, tethering or selective degradation. |
| GO:0006810 | transport | The directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) or cellular components (such as complexes and organelles) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, or within a multicellular organism by means of some agent such as a transporter or a transporter complex, a pore or a motor protein. |
| GO:0051656 | establishment of organelle localization | The directed movement of an organelle to a specific location. |
| GO:0051649 | establishment of localization in cell | Any process, occurring in a cell, that localizes a substance or cellular component. This may occur via movement, tethering or selective degradation. |
| GO:0051641 | cellular localization | A cellular localization process whereby a substance or cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, is transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location within a cell including the localization of substances or cellular entities to the cell membrane. |
| GO:0016192 | vesicle-mediated transport | A cellular transport process in which transported substances are moved in membrane-bounded vesicles; transported substances are enclosed in the vesicle lumen or located in the vesicle membrane. The process begins with a step that directs a substance to the forming vesicle, and includes vesicle budding and coating. Vesicles are then targeted to, and fuse with, an acceptor membrane. |
| GO:0046903 | secretion | The controlled release of a substance by a cell or a tissue. |
| GO:0140352 | export from cell | The directed movement of some substance from a cell, into the extracellular region. This may occur via transport across the plasma membrane or via exocytosis. |
| GO:0032940 | secretion by cell | The controlled release of a substance by a cell. |
| GO:0140029 | exocytic process | The cellular processes that contribute to exocytosis. |
| GO:0006904 | vesicle docking involved in exocytosis | The initial attachment of a vesicle membrane to a target membrane, mediated by proteins protruding from the membrane of the vesicle and the target membrane, that contributes to exocytosis. |
| GO:0022406 | membrane docking | The initial attachment of a membrane or protein to a target membrane. Docking requires only that the proteins come close enough to interact and adhere. |
| GO:0006887 | exocytosis | A process of secretion by a cell that results in the release of intracellular molecules (e.g. hormones, matrix proteins) contained within a membrane-bounded vesicle. Exocytosis can occur either by full fusion, when the vesicle collapses into the plasma membrane, or by a kiss-and-run mechanism that involves the formation of a transient contact, a pore, between a granule (for example of chromaffin cells) and the plasma membrane. The latter process most of the time leads to only partial secretion of the granule content. Exocytosis begins with steps that prepare vesicles for fusion with the membrane (tethering and docking) and ends when molecules are secreted from the cell. |
| GO:0048278 | vesicle docking | The initial attachment of a transport vesicle membrane to the target membrane, mediated by proteins protruding from the membrane of the vesicle and the target membrane. Docking requires only that the two membranes come close enough for these proteins to interact and adhere. |
| GO:0140056 | organelle localization by membrane tethering | The process by which an organelle membrane interacts with another membrane via molecular tethers that physically bridge the two membranes and attach them to each other. |
| GO:0045055 | regulated exocytosis | A process of exocytosis in which soluble proteins and other substances are initially stored in secretory vesicles for later release. It is found mainly in cells that are specialized for secreting products such as hormones, neurotransmitters, or digestive enzymes rapidly on demand. |
| GO:0051650 | establishment of vesicle localization | The directed movement of a vesicle to a specific location. |
| GO:0051648 | vesicle localization | Any process in which a vesicle or vesicles are transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location. |
| GO:0017156 | calcium-ion regulated exocytosis | The release of intracellular molecules (e.g. hormones, matrix proteins) contained within a membrane-bounded vesicle by fusion of the vesicle with the plasma membrane of a cell, induced by a rise in cytosolic calcium-ion levels. |
| GO:0032252 | secretory granule localization | Any process in which a secretory granule is transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location within the cell. |
| GO:0032253 | dense core granule localization | Any process in which a dense core granule is transported to, and/or maintained in, a specific location within the cell. |
| GO:1990504 | dense core granule exocytosis | The secretion of molecules (e.g. neuropeptides, insulin-related peptides or neuromodulators such as serotonin and dopamine) contained within a membrane-bounced dense core granule by fusion of the granule with the plasma membrane of a cell in response to increased cytosolic calcium levels. |
| GO:0061790 | dense core granule docking | The initial attachment of a dense core granule membrane to the plasma membrane. |
