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: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: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:0032502
|
developmental process
|
A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an integrated living unit: an anatomical structure (which may be a subcellular structure, cell, tissue, or organ), or organism over time from an initial condition to a later condition. |
GO:0009653
|
anatomical structure morphogenesis
|
The process in which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. |
GO:0040007
|
growth
|
The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell. |
GO:0048589
|
developmental growth
|
The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell, where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the organism over time from one condition to another. |
GO:0040008
|
regulation of growth
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the growth of all or part of an organism so that it occurs at its proper speed, either globally or in a specific part of the organism's development. |
GO:0048729
|
tissue morphogenesis
|
The process in which the anatomical structures of a tissue are generated and organized. |
GO:0002009
|
morphogenesis of an epithelium
|
The process in which the anatomical structures of epithelia are generated and organized. An epithelium consists of closely packed cells arranged in one or more layers, that covers the outer surfaces of the body or lines any internal cavity or tube. |
GO:0051094
|
positive regulation of developmental process
|
Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of development, the biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of an organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote, or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). |
GO:0050793
|
regulation of developmental process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of development, the biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a multicellular organism over time from an initial condition (e.g. a zygote, or a young adult) to a later condition (e.g. a multicellular animal or an aged adult). |
GO:0022603
|
regulation of anatomical structure morphogenesis
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of anatomical structure morphogenesis. |
GO:0060026
|
convergent extension
|
The morphogenetic process in which an epithelium narrows along one axis and lengthens in a perpendicular axis. |
GO:0048638
|
regulation of developmental growth
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of developmental growth. |
GO:0045927
|
positive regulation of growth
|
Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of growth, the increase in size or mass of all or part of an organism. |
GO:0048639
|
positive regulation of developmental growth
|
Any process that activates, maintains or increases the rate of developmental growth. |
GO:0060028
|
convergent extension involved in axis elongation
|
The morphogenetic process in which an epithelium narrows along one axis and lengthens in a perpendicular axis contributing to the lengthening of the axis of an organism. |
GO:1905330
|
regulation of morphogenesis of an epithelium
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of morphogenesis of an epithelium. |
GO:1905332
|
positive regulation of morphogenesis of an epithelium
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of morphogenesis of an epithelium. |
GO:1901232
|
regulation of convergent extension involved in axis elongation
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of convergent extension involved in axis elongation. |
GO:1901234
|
positive regulation of convergent extension involved in axis elongation
|
Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of convergent extension involved in axis elongation. |
