Identifier Name Description
GO:0032991 protein-containing complex A stable assembly of two or more macromolecules, i.e. proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates or lipids, in which at least one component is a protein and the constituent parts function together.
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:0098636 protein complex involved in cell adhesion Any protein complex that is capable of carrying out some part of the process of cell adhesion to the cell matrix or to another cell.
GO:0098635 protein complex involved in cell-cell adhesion Any protein complex that is capable of carrying out some part of the process of cell-cell adhesion.
