| 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:0016020 | membrane | A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it and attached to it. |
| GO:0099080 | supramolecular complex | A cellular component that consists of an indeterminate number of proteins or macromolecular complexes, organized into a regular, higher-order structure such as a polymer, sheet, network or a fiber. |
| GO:0099512 | supramolecular fiber | A polymer consisting of an indefinite number of protein or protein complex subunits that have polymerised to form a fiber-shaped structure. |
| GO:0099513 | polymeric cytoskeletal fiber | A component of the cytoskeleton consisting of a homo or heteropolymeric fiber constructed from an indeterminate number of protein subunits. |
| GO:0099081 | supramolecular polymer | A polymeric supramolecular structure. |
| 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:0098590 | plasma membrane region | A membrane that is a (regional) part of the plasma membrane. |
| GO:0005884 | actin filament | A filamentous structure formed of a two-stranded helical polymer of the protein actin and associated proteins. Actin filaments are a major component of the contractile apparatus of skeletal muscle and the microfilaments of the cytoskeleton of eukaryotic cells. The filaments, comprising polymerized globular actin molecules, appear as flexible structures with a diameter of 5-9 nm. They are organized into a variety of linear bundles, two-dimensional networks, and three dimensional gels. In the cytoskeleton they are most highly concentrated in the cortex of the cell just beneath the plasma membrane. |
| GO:0032432 | actin filament bundle | An assembly of actin filaments that are on the same axis but may be oriented with the same or opposite polarities and may be packed with different levels of tightness. |
| GO:0098862 | cluster of actin-based cell projections | A cell part consisting of multiple, closely packed actin-based cell projections. |
| GO:0098858 | actin-based cell projection | A cell projection supported by an assembly of actin filaments, and which lacks microtubules. |
| GO:0005902 | microvillus | Thin cylindrical membrane-covered projections on the surface of an animal cell containing a core bundle of actin filaments. Present in especially large numbers on the absorptive surface of intestinal cells. |
| GO:0151001 | tuft | A dense cluster of elongated, thick microvilli on the apical surface of tuft cells in epithelial tissues, such as the intestine and respiratory tract. The apical tuft extends further into the lumen than typical microvilli, featuring larger, more compact projections with unique actin cores that penetrate deep into the cytoplasm, often reaching the perinuclear region. This distinctive structure, rich in microfilaments and microtubules, supports the chemosensory functions of the cell. |
