| GO term | GO name | GO namespace | GO def |
| GO:0005515 | protein binding | molecular_function | Binding to a protein. [GOC:go_curators] |
| GO:0031267 | small GTPase binding | molecular_function | Binding to a small monomeric GTPase. [GOC:mah, PMID:27218782] |
| GO:0044325 | transmembrane transporter binding | molecular_function | Binding to a transmembrane transporter, a protein or protein complex that enables the transfer of a substance, usually a specific substance or a group of related substances, from one side of a membrane to the other. [GOC:BHF, GOC:jl, PMID:33199372] |
| GO:0017156 | calcium-ion regulated exocytosis | biological_process | The release of intracellular molecules (e.g. hormones, matrix proteins) contained within a membrane-bounded vesicle by fusion of the vesicle with the plasma membrane of a cell, induced by a rise in cytosolic calcium-ion levels. [GOC:go_curators] |
| GO:0042391 | regulation of membrane potential | biological_process | Any process that modulates the establishment or extent of a membrane potential, the electric potential existing across any membrane arising from charges in the membrane itself and from the charges present in the media on either side of the membrane. [GOC:jl, GOC:mtg_cardio, GOC:tb, ISBN:0198506732] |
| GO:2000300 | regulation of synaptic vesicle exocytosis | biological_process | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of synaptic vesicle exocytosis. [GOC:obol] |
| GO:0048786 | presynaptic active zone | cellular_component | A specialized region of the plasma membrane and cell cortex of a presynaptic neuron; encompasses a region of the plasma membrane where synaptic vesicles dock and fuse, and a specialized cortical cytoskeletal matrix. [GOC:dh, GOC:dl, GOC:ef, GOC:jid, GOC:pr, PMID:3152289] |
| GO:0050806 | positive regulation of synaptic transmission | biological_process | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of synaptic transmission, the process of communication from a neuron to a target (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) across a synapse. [GOC:ai] |
| GO:0042734 | presynaptic membrane | cellular_component | A specialized area of membrane of the axon terminal that faces the plasma membrane of the neuron or muscle fiber with which the axon terminal establishes a synaptic junction; many synaptic junctions exhibit structural presynaptic characteristics, such as conical, electron-dense internal protrusions, that distinguish it from the remainder of the axon plasma membrane. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0815316194] |
| GO:0048167 | regulation of synaptic plasticity | biological_process | A process that modulates synaptic plasticity, the ability of synapses to change as circumstances require. They may alter function, such as increasing or decreasing their sensitivity, or they may increase or decrease in actual numbers. [GOC:dph, GOC:jid, GOC:tb, PMID:11891290] |
| GO:0048791 | calcium ion-regulated exocytosis of neurotransmitter | biological_process | The release of a neurotransmitter into the synaptic cleft by exocytosis of synaptic vesicles, where the release step is dependent on a rise in cytosolic calcium ion levels. [GOC:curators] |
| GO:0048788 | cytoskeleton of presynaptic active zone | cellular_component | The specialized cytoskeletal matrix of the presynaptic active zone. It has specialized functions in organizing synaptic events such as immobilisation or translocation of synaptic vesicles, and assembling active zone components. It is believed to form a molecular scaffold that organizes neurotransmitter release sites. [GOC:dh, GOC:dl, GOC:ef, GOC:jid, NIF_Subcellular:sao1470121605, PMID:10944438] |
