| GO term | GO name | GO namespace | GO def |
| GO:0003779 | actin binding | molecular_function | Binding to monomeric or multimeric forms of actin, including actin filaments. [GOC:clt] |
| GO:0005515 | protein binding | molecular_function | Binding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators] |
| GO:0045296 | cadherin binding | molecular_function | Binding to cadherin, a type I membrane protein involved in cell adhesion. [GOC:bf] |
| GO:0034329 | cell junction assembly | biological_process | A cellular process that results in the aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form a cell junction. [GOC:mah] |
| GO:0065003 | protein-containing complex assembly | biological_process | The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of macromolecules to form a protein-containing complex. [GOC:jl] |
| GO:0005576 | extracellular region | cellular_component | The space external to the outermost structure of a cell. For cells without external protective or external encapsulating structures this refers to space outside of the plasma membrane. This term covers the host cell environment outside an intracellular parasite. [GOC:go_curators] |
| GO:0005829 | cytosol | cellular_component | The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes. [GOC:hjd, GOC:jl] |
| GO:0005856 | cytoskeleton | cellular_component | A cellular structure that forms the internal framework of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. The cytoskeleton includes intermediate filaments, microfilaments, microtubules, the microtrabecular lattice, and other structures characterized by a polymeric filamentous nature and long-range order within the cell. The various elements of the cytoskeleton not only serve in the maintenance of cellular shape but also have roles in other cellular functions, including cellular movement, cell division, endocytosis, and movement of organelles. [GOC:mah, PMID:16959967, PMID:27419875] |
| GO:0015629 | actin cytoskeleton | cellular_component | The part of the cytoskeleton (the internal framework of a cell) composed of actin and associated proteins. Includes actin cytoskeleton-associated complexes. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0395825172, ISBN:0815316194] |
| GO:0070062 | extracellular exosome | cellular_component | A vesicle that is released into the extracellular region by fusion of the limiting endosomal membrane of a multivesicular body with the plasma membrane. Extracellular exosomes, also simply called exosomes, have a diameter of about 40-100 nm. [GOC:BHF, GOC:mah, GOC:vesicles, PMID:15908444, PMID:17641064, PMID:19442504, PMID:19498381, PMID:22418571, PMID:24009894] |
| GO:0071203 | WASH complex | cellular_component | A protein complex that localizes at the surface of endosomes, where it recruits and activates the Arp2/3 complex to induce actin polymerization. In human, the WASH complex is composed of F-actin-capping protein subunits alpha and beta, WASH1, FAM21, KIAA1033, KIAA0196 and CCDC53. [GOC:sp, PMID:19922875] |
| GO:0051016 | barbed-end actin filament capping | biological_process | The binding of a protein or protein complex to the barbed (or plus) end of an actin filament, thus preventing the addition, exchange or removal of further actin subunits. [ISBN:071673706X] |
| GO:0030036 | actin cytoskeleton organization | biological_process | A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures comprising actin filaments and their associated proteins. [GOC:dph, GOC:jl, GOC:mah] |
| GO:0008290 | F-actin capping protein complex | cellular_component | A heterodimer consisting of alpha and beta subunits that binds to and caps the barbed ends of actin filaments, thereby regulating the polymerization of actin monomers but not severing actin filaments. [GOC:go_curators, ISBN:0198599560] |
| GO:0051015 | actin filament binding | molecular_function | Binding to an actin filament, also known as F-actin, a helical filamentous polymer of globular G-actin subunits. [ISBN:0198506732] |
