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:0065007
|
biological regulation
|
Any process that modulates a measurable attribute of any biological process, quality or function. |
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:0048519
|
negative regulation of biological process
|
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces 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:0040007
|
growth
|
The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell. |
GO:0048589
|
developmental growth
|
The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell, where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the organism over time from one condition to another. |
GO:0040008
|
regulation of growth
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the growth of all or part of an organism so that it occurs at its proper speed, either globally or in a specific part of the organism's development. |
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:0051093
|
negative regulation of developmental process
|
Any process that stops, prevents or reduces 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:0060560
|
developmental growth involved in morphogenesis
|
The increase in size or mass of an anatomical structure that contributes to the structure attaining its shape. |
GO:0003401
|
axis elongation
|
The developmental growth that results in the elongation of a line that defines polarity or symmetry in an anatomical structure. |
GO:0048638
|
regulation of developmental growth
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of developmental growth. |
GO:0045926
|
negative regulation of growth
|
Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate or extent of growth, the increase in size or mass of all or part of an organism. |
GO:0048640
|
negative regulation of developmental growth
|
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of developmental growth. |
GO:0060602
|
branch elongation of an epithelium
|
The growth process in which a branch increases in length from its base to its tip. |
GO:0060681
|
branch elongation involved in ureteric bud branching
|
The growth of a branch of the ureteric bud along its axis. |
GO:0072095
|
regulation of branch elongation involved in ureteric bud branching
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of branch elongation involved in ureteric bud branching, the growth of a branch of the ureteric bud along its axis. |
GO:0072096
|
negative regulation of branch elongation involved in ureteric bud branching
|
Any process that reduces the frequency, rate or extent of branch elongation involved in ureteric bud branching, the growth of a branch of the ureteric bud along its axis. |
