GO term | GO name | GO namespace | GO def |
GO:0003677 | DNA binding | molecular_function | Any molecular function by which a gene product interacts selectively and non-covalently with DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). [GOC:dph, GOC:jl, GOC:tb, GOC:vw] |
GO:0005515 | protein binding | molecular_function | Binding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators] |
GO:0030527 | structural constituent of chromatin | molecular_function | The action of a molecule that contributes to the structural integrity of chromatin. [GOC:ai] |
GO:0046982 | protein heterodimerization activity | molecular_function | Binding to a nonidentical protein to form a heterodimer. [GOC:ai] |
GO:0006325 | chromatin organization | biological_process | The assembly or remodeling of chromatin composed of DNA complexed with histones, other associated proteins, and sometimes RNA. [PMID:20404130] |
GO:0006334 | nucleosome assembly | biological_process | The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a nucleosome, the beadlike structural units of eukaryotic chromatin composed of histones and DNA. [GOC:mah] |
GO:0000781 | chromosome, telomeric region | cellular_component | The end of a linear chromosome, required for the integrity and maintenance of the end. A chromosome telomere usually includes a region of telomerase-encoded repeats the length of which rarely exceeds 20 bp each and that permits the formation of a telomeric loop (T-loop). The telomeric repeat region is usually preceded by a sub-telomeric region that is gene-poor but rich in repetitive elements. Some telomeres only consist of the latter part (for eg. D. melanogaster telomeres). [GOC:elh] |
GO:0000786 | nucleosome | cellular_component | A complex comprised of DNA wound around a multisubunit core and associated proteins, which forms the primary packing unit of DNA into higher order structures. [GOC:elh] |
GO:0005634 | nucleus | cellular_component | A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators] |
GO:0005654 | nucleoplasm | cellular_component | That part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus. [GOC:ma, ISBN:0124325653] |
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.
