| 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: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:0050896 | response to stimulus | Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus. The process begins with detection of the stimulus and ends with a change in state or activity or the cell or organism. |
| 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:0023052 | signaling | The entirety of a process in which information is transmitted within a biological system. This process begins with an active signal and ends when a cellular response has been triggered. |
| GO:0007154 | cell communication | Any process that mediates interactions between a cell and its surroundings. Encompasses interactions such as signaling or attachment between one cell and another cell, between a cell and an extracellular matrix, or between a cell and any other aspect of its environment. |
| GO:0007267 | cell-cell signaling | Any process that mediates the transfer of information from one cell to another. This process includes signal transduction in the receiving cell and, where applicable, release of a ligand and any processes that actively facilitate its transport and presentation to the receiving cell. Examples include signaling via soluble ligands, via cell adhesion molecules and via gap junctions. |
| GO:0009607 | response to biotic stimulus | Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a biotic stimulus, a stimulus caused or produced by a living organism. |
| GO:0051606 | detection of stimulus | The series of events in which a stimulus is received by a cell or organism and converted into a molecular signal. |
| GO:0009595 | detection of biotic stimulus | The series of events in which a biotic stimulus, one caused or produced by a living organism, is received and converted into a molecular signal. |
| GO:0060245 | detection of cell density | The series of events in which information about the density of cells in a population is received and converted into a molecular signal. |
| GO:0009372 | quorum sensing | The cell-cell signaling process in which single-celled organisms carry out coordinated responses by monitoring their own population density, and often also that of other microbes, by producing small, diffusible, signal molecules, detecting the concentration of these molecules, and triggering a signal transduction pathway when a certain threshold is reached. Quorum sensing can occur amongst microbial communities in the environment or within host organisms. |
| GO:0120218 | host interaction involved in quorum sensing | A quorum sensing process that is modulated by some interaction with a host cell or organism. |
