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:0070925
|
organelle assembly
|
The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form an organelle. An organelle is an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton. Excludes the plasma membrane. |
GO:0022607
|
cellular component assembly
|
The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a cellular component. |
GO:0044085
|
cellular component biogenesis
|
A process that results in the biosynthesis of constituent macromolecules, assembly, and arrangement of constituent parts of a cellular component. Includes biosynthesis of constituent macromolecules, and those macromolecular modifications that are involved in synthesis or assembly of the cellular component. |
GO:0061024
|
membrane organization
|
A process which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a membrane. A membrane is a double layer of lipid molecules that encloses all cells, and, in eukaryotes, many organelles; may be a single or double lipid bilayer; also includes associated proteins. |
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:0090174
|
organelle membrane fusion
|
The joining of two lipid bilayers to form a single organelle membrane. |
GO:0048284
|
organelle fusion
|
The creation of a single organelle from two or more organelles. |
GO:0061025
|
membrane fusion
|
The membrane organization process that joins two lipid bilayers to form a single membrane. |
GO:0098657
|
import into cell
|
The directed movement of some substance from outside of a cell into a cell. This may occur via transport across the plasma membrane or via endocytosis. |
GO:0016050
|
vesicle organization
|
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a vesicle. |
GO:0001845
|
phagolysosome assembly
|
The process that results in the fusion of a phagosome, a vesicle formed by phagocytosis, with a lysosome. |
GO:0006909
|
phagocytosis
|
A vesicle-mediated transport process that results in the engulfment of external particulate material by phagocytes and their delivery to the lysosome. The particles are initially contained within phagocytic vacuoles (phagosomes), which then fuse with primary lysosomes to effect digestion of the particles. |
GO:0090382
|
phagosome maturation
|
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the arrangement of constituent parts of a phagosome within a cell. Phagosome maturation begins with endocytosis and formation of the early phagosome and ends with the formation of the hybrid organelle, the phagolysosome. |
GO:0007040
|
lysosome organization
|
A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a lysosome. A lysosome is a cytoplasmic, membrane-bounded organelle that is found in most animal cells and that contains a variety of hydrolases. |
GO:0006897
|
endocytosis
|
A vesicle-mediated transport process in which cells take up external materials or membrane constituents by the invagination of a part of the plasma membrane to form a new membrane-bounded vesicle. |

GO:0090387
|
phagolysosome assembly involved in apoptotic cell clearance
|
The process in which a phagosome, a vesicle formed by phagocytosis, fuses with a lysosome as a part of apoptotic cell clearance. |
