| 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:0043227 | membrane-bounded organelle | Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, bounded by a single or double lipid bilayer membrane. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, and vesicles. Excludes the plasma membrane. |
| GO:0043226 | organelle | Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton, and prokaryotic structures such as anammoxosomes and pirellulosomes. Excludes the plasma membrane. |
| GO:0071944 | cell periphery | The broad region around and including the plasma membrane of a cell, encompassing the cell cortex (inside the cell), the plasma membrane, and any external encapsulating structures. |
| GO:0016020 | membrane | A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it and attached to it. |
| GO:0098588 | bounding membrane of organelle | The lipid bilayer that forms the outer-most layer of an organelle. |
| GO:0031090 | organelle membrane | A membrane that is one of the two lipid bilayers of an organelle envelope or the outermost membrane of single membrane bound organelle. |
| GO:0005886 | plasma membrane | The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. |
| 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:0005929 | cilium | A specialized eukaryotic organelle that consists of a filiform extrusion of the cell surface and of some cytoplasmic parts. Each cilium is largely bounded by an extrusion of the cytoplasmic (plasma) membrane, and contains a regular longitudinal array of microtubules, anchored to a basal body. |
| GO:0098590 | plasma membrane region | A membrane that is a (regional) part of the plasma membrane. |
| GO:0097733 | photoreceptor cell cilium | A specialised 9+0 non-motile cilium found in photoreceptor cells. A ciliary transition zone called 'photoreceptor connecting cilium' links the photoreceptor outer segment to the inner segment. |
| GO:0001750 | photoreceptor outer segment | The outer segment of a vertebrate photoreceptor that contains a stack of membrane discs embedded with photoreceptor proteins. |
| GO:0043005 | neuron projection | A prolongation or process extending from a nerve cell, e.g. an axon or dendrite. |
| GO:0097730 | non-motile cilium | A cilium which may have a variable array of axonemal microtubules but does not contain molecular motors. |
| GO:0097731 | 9+0 non-motile cilium | A non-motile cilium where the axoneme has a ring of nine outer microtubule doublets but no central microtubules (and is therefore called a 9+0 axoneme). |
| GO:0060170 | ciliary membrane | The portion of the plasma membrane surrounding a cilium. |
| GO:0031253 | cell projection membrane | The portion of the plasma membrane surrounding a plasma membrane bounded cell surface projection. |
| GO:0097381 | photoreceptor disc membrane | Stack of disc membranes located inside a photoreceptor outer segment, and containing densely packed molecules of photoreceptor proteins that traverse the lipid bilayer. Disc membranes arise as evaginations of the ciliary membrane during the development of the outer segment and may or may not remain contiguous with the ciliary membrane. |
| GO:0120201 | cone photoreceptor disc membrane | Stack of disc membranes located inside a cone photoreceptor outer segment, and containing densely packed molecules of opsin photoreceptor proteins that traverse the lipid bilayer. Cone disc membranes arise as evaginations of the ciliary membrane during the development of the cone outer segment and remain contiguous with the ciliary membrane. |
