GO:0008152
|
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:0006952
|
defense response
|
Reactions, triggered in response to the presence of a foreign body or the occurrence of an injury, which result in restriction of damage to the organism attacked or prevention/recovery from the infection caused by the attack. |
GO:0044237
|
cellular metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways by which individual cells transform chemical substances. |
GO:0006950
|
response to stress
|
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a disturbance in organismal or cellular homeostasis, usually, but not necessarily, exogenous (e.g. temperature, humidity, ionizing radiation). |
GO:0006807
|
nitrogen compound metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving organic or inorganic compounds that contain nitrogen, including (but not limited to) nitrogen fixation, nitrification, denitrification, assimilatory/dissimilatory nitrate reduction and the interconversion of nitrogenous organic matter and ammonium. |
GO:0006139
|
nucleobase-containing compound metabolic process
|
Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleobases, nucleosides, nucleotides and nucleic acids. |
GO:0071704
|
organic substance metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving an organic substance, any molecular entity containing carbon. |
GO:0006259
|
DNA metabolic process
|
Any cellular metabolic process involving deoxyribonucleic acid. This is one of the two main types of nucleic acid, consisting of a long, unbranched macromolecule formed from one, or more commonly, two, strands of linked deoxyribonucleotides. |
GO:0043412
|
macromolecule modification
|
The covalent alteration of one or more monomeric units in a polypeptide, polynucleotide, polysaccharide, or other biological macromolecule, resulting in a change in its properties. |
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:0006725
|
cellular aromatic compound metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving aromatic compounds, any organic compound characterized by one or more planar rings, each of which contains conjugated double bonds and delocalized pi electrons, as carried out by individual cells. |
GO:0009307
|
DNA restriction-modification system
|
A defense process found in many bacteria and archaea that protects the organism from invading foreign DNA by cleaving it with a restriction endonuclease. The organism's own DNA is protected by methylation of a specific nucleotide, which occurs immediately following replication, in the same target site as the restriction enzyme. |
GO:0006304
|
DNA modification
|
The covalent alteration of one or more nucleotide sites in DNA, resulting in a change in its properties. |
GO:0044260
|
cellular 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, as carried out by individual cells. |
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:0050896
|
response to stimulus
|
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus. The process begins with detection of the stimulus and ends with a change in state or activity or the cell or organism. |
GO:0090304
|
nucleic acid metabolic process
|
Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleic acids. |
GO:0034641
|
cellular nitrogen compound metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving various organic and inorganic nitrogenous compounds, as carried out by individual cells. |
GO:1901360
|
organic cyclic compound metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving organic cyclic compound. |
GO:0046483
|
heterocycle metabolic process
|
The chemical reactions and pathways involving heterocyclic compounds, those with a cyclic molecular structure and at least two different atoms in the ring (or rings). |
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:0044355
|
clearance of foreign intracellular DNA
|
A defense process that protects an organism from invading foreign DNA. |
