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: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:0030312 | external encapsulating structure | A structure that lies outside the plasma membrane and surrounds the entire cell or cells. This does not include the periplasmic space. |
GO:0030112 | glycocalyx | A carbohydrate rich layer at the outermost periphery of a cell. |
GO:0120240 | platelet glycocalyx | The carbohydrate rich layer at the outermost periphery of a platelet. |
