|
metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways, including anabolism and catabolism, by which living organisms transform chemical substances. Metabolic processes typically transform small molecules, but also include macromolecular processes such as DNA repair and replication, and protein synthesis and degradation. |
|
GO:0071704
|
organic substance metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving an organic substance, any molecular entity containing carbon. |
|
GO:0019538
|
protein metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving a specific protein, rather than of proteins in general. Includes protein modification. |
|
GO:0019953
|
sexual reproduction
|
A reproduction process that creates a new organism by combining the genetic material of two organisms. It occurs both in eukaryotes and prokaryotes: in multicellular eukaryotic organisms, an individual is created anew; in prokaryotes, the initial cell has additional or transformed genetic material. In a process called genetic recombination, genetic material (DNA) originating from two different individuals (parents) join up so that homologous sequences are aligned with each other, and this is followed by exchange of genetic information. After the new recombinant chromosome is formed, it is passed on to progeny. |
|
GO:0044238
|
primary metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving those compounds which are formed as a part of the normal anabolic and catabolic processes. These processes take place in most, if not all, cells of the organism. |
|
GO:0009987
|
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
|
Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. |
|
GO:0000003
|
reproduction
|
The production of new individuals that contain some portion of genetic material inherited from one or more parent organisms. |
|
GO:0043170
|
macromolecule metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving macromolecules, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass. |
|
GO:0010467
|
gene expression
|
The process in which a gene's sequence is converted into a mature gene product or products (proteins or RNA). This includes the production of an RNA transcript as well as any processing to produce a mature RNA product or an mRNA (for protein-coding genes) and the translation of that mRNA into protein. Protein maturation is included when required to form an active form of a product from an inactive precursor form. |
|
GO:0051704
|
multi-organism process
|
A biological process which involves another organism of the same or different species. |
|
GO:0044764
|
multi-organism cellular process
|
Any process that is carried out at the cellular level which involves another organism of the same or different species. |
|
GO:0022414
|
reproductive process
|
A biological process that directly contributes to the process of producing new individuals by one or two organisms. The new individuals inherit some proportion of their genetic material from the parent or parents. |
|
GO:0000747
|
conjugation with cellular fusion
|
A conjugation process that results in the union of cellular and genetic information from compatible mating types. An example of this process is found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. |
|
GO:0000746
|
conjugation
|
The union or introduction of genetic information from compatible mating types that results in a genetically different individual. Conjugation requires direct cellular contact between the organisms. |
|
GO:0044703
|
multi-organism reproductive process
|
A biological process that directly contributes to the process of producing new individuals, involving another organism. |
|
GO:0051604
|
protein maturation
|
Any process leading to the attainment of the full functional capacity of a protein. |
|
GO:0007323
|
peptide pheromone maturation
|
The generation of a mature, active peptide pheromone via processes unique to its processing and modification. An example of this process is found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. |
|
GO:0071432
|
peptide mating pheromone maturation involved in conjugation with cellular fusion
|
The formation of a mature peptide mating pheromone by proteolysis and/or modification of a peptide precursor, occurring in the context of conjugation with cellular fusion. |
