| 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: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:0030427 | site of polarized growth | Any part of a cell where non-isotropic growth takes place. |
| GO:0120025 | plasma membrane bounded cell projection | A prolongation or process extending from a cell and that is bounded by plasma membrane, e.g. a cilium, lamellipodium, or axon. |
| GO:0042995 | cell projection | A prolongation or process extending from a cell, e.g. a flagellum or axon. |
| GO:0031252 | cell leading edge | The area of a motile cell closest to the direction of movement. |
| GO:0043005 | neuron projection | A prolongation or process extending from a nerve cell, e.g. an axon or dendrite. |
| GO:0030424 | axon | The long process of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses, usually away from the cell body to the terminals and varicosities, which are sites of storage and release of neurotransmitter. |
| GO:0030425 | dendrite | A neuron projection that has a short, tapering, morphology. Dendrites receive and integrate signals from other neurons or from sensory stimuli, and conduct nerve impulses towards the axon or the cell body. In most neurons, the impulse is conveyed from dendrites to axon via the cell body, but in some types of unipolar neuron, the impulse does not travel via the cell body. |
| GO:0097447 | dendritic tree | The entire complement of dendrites for a neuron, consisting of each primary dendrite and all its branches. |
| GO:0036477 | somatodendritic compartment | The region of a neuron that includes the cell body (cell soma) and dendrite(s), but excludes the axon. |
| GO:0030426 | growth cone | The migrating motile tip of a growing neuron projection, where actin accumulates, and the actin cytoskeleton is the most dynamic. |
| GO:0150034 | distal axon | That part of an axon close to and including the growth cone or the axon terminus. |
| GO:0044292 | dendrite terminus | A structure at the distal end of a dendrite adapted to carry out a specific function, e.g. dendriole. |
| GO:0044294 | dendritic growth cone | The migrating motile tip of a growing nerve cell dendrite. |
| GO:0090725 | peripheral region of growth cone | The non-central region or periphery of the migrating motile tip of a growing nerve cell axon or dendrite. |
| GO:0061850 | growth cone leading edge | That part of the growth cone which represents the distal part of the structure. |
| GO:0061917 | leading edge of dendritic growth cone | That part of the dendritic growth cone which represents the distal part of the structure. |
