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:0065007
|
biological regulation
|
Any process that modulates a measurable attribute of any biological process, quality or function. |
GO:0050794
|
regulation of cellular process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. |
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:0051703
|
biological process involved in intraspecies interaction between organisms
|
Any process in which an organism has an effect on an organism of the same species. |
GO:0048522
|
positive regulation of cellular process
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. |
GO:0048518
|
positive regulation of biological process
|
Any process that activates or increases 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:0098743
|
cell aggregation
|
The clustering together and adhesion of initially separate cells to form an aggregate. Examples include the clustering of unicellular organisms or blood cells in suspension and the condensation of mesenchymal cells during cartilage formation. |
GO:0044419
|
biological process involved in interspecies interaction between organisms
|
Any process evolved to enable an interaction with an organism of a different species. |
GO:0051701
|
biological process involved in interaction with host
|
An interaction between two organisms living together in more or less intimate association. The term host is used for the larger (macro) of the two members of a symbiosis; the various forms of symbiosis include parasitism, commensalism and mutualism. |
GO:0044403
|
biological process involved in symbiotic interaction
|
A process carried out by gene products in an organism that enable the organism to engage in a symbiotic relationship, a more or less intimate association, with another organism. The various forms of symbiosis include parasitism, in which the association is disadvantageous or destructive to one of the organisms; mutualism, in which the association is advantageous, or often necessary to one or both and not harmful to either; and commensalism, in which one member of the association benefits while the other is not affected. However, mutualism, parasitism, and commensalism are often not discrete categories of interactions and should rather be perceived as a continuum of interaction ranging from parasitism to mutualism. In fact, the direction of a symbiotic interaction can change during the lifetime of the symbionts due to developmental changes as well as changes in the biotic/abiotic environment in which the interaction occurs. Microscopic symbionts are often referred to as endosymbionts. |
GO:0044406
|
adhesion of symbiont to host
|
The attachment of a symbiont to its host via either adhesion molecules, general stickiness, or other mechanisms. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. |
GO:0098630
|
aggregation of unicellular organisms
|
The clustering together of unicellular organisms in suspension form aggregates. |
GO:0042710
|
biofilm formation
|
A process in which planktonically growing microorganisms grow at a liquid-air interface or on a solid substrate under the flow of a liquid and produce extracellular polymers that facilitate matrix formation, resulting in a change in the organisms' growth rate and gene transcription. |
GO:0044407
|
single-species biofilm formation in or on host organism
|
A process in which microorganisms of the same species attach to and grow in or on a host species, and produce extracellular polymers that facilitate attachment and matrix formation, resulting in a change in the microorganisms' growth rate and gene transcription. The host is defined as the larger of the organisms involved in a symbiotic interaction. |
GO:0044010
|
single-species biofilm formation
|
A process in which planktonically growing microorganisms of the same species grow at a liquid-air interface or on a solid substrate under the flow of a liquid and produce extracellular polymers that facilitate matrix formation, resulting in a change in the organisms' growth rate and gene transcription. |
GO:0043903
|
regulation of biological process involved in symbiotic interaction
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of symbiosis, an interaction between two organisms living together in more or less intimate association. |
GO:1900190
|
regulation of single-species biofilm formation
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of single-species biofilm formation. |
GO:1900192
|
positive regulation of single-species biofilm formation
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of single-species biofilm formation. |
GO:1900228
|

|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of single-species biofilm formation in or on host organism. |
GO:1900230
|
