|
protein complex
|
A stable macromolecular complex composed (only) of two or more polypeptide subunits along with any covalently attached molecules (such as lipid anchors or oligosaccharide) or non-protein prosthetic groups (such as nucleotides or metal ions). Prosthetic group in this context refers to a tightly bound cofactor. The component polypeptide subunits may be identical. |

GO:0005622
|
intracellular
|
The living contents of a cell; the matter contained within (but not including) the plasma membrane, usually taken to exclude large vacuoles and masses of secretory or ingested material. In eukaryotes it includes the nucleus and cytoplasm. |
|
GO:0000786
|
nucleosome
|
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. |
|
GO:0005694
|
chromosome
|
A structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information. |
|
GO:0000785
|
chromatin
|
The ordered and organized complex of DNA, protein, and sometimes RNA, that forms the chromosome. |
|
GO:0044464
|
cell part
|
Any constituent part of a cell, the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms. |
|
GO:0044424
|
intracellular part
|
Any constituent part of the living contents of a cell; the matter contained within (but not including) the plasma membrane, usually taken to exclude large vacuoles and masses of secretory or ingested material. In eukaryotes it includes the nucleus and cytoplasm. |
|
GO:0032991
|
macromolecular complex
|
A stable assembly of two or more macromolecules, i.e. proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates or lipids, in which the constituent parts function together. |
|
GO:0005575
|
cellular_component
|
The part of a cell or its extracellular environment in which a gene product is located. A gene product may be located in one or more parts of a cell and its location may be as specific as a particular macromolecular complex, that is, a stable, persistent association of macromolecules that function together. |
|
GO:0005623
|
cell
|
The basic structural and functional unit of all organisms. Includes the plasma membrane and any external encapsulating structures such as the cell wall and cell envelope. |
|
GO:0043226
|
organelle
|
Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton, and prokaryotic structures such as anammoxosomes and pirellulosomes. Excludes the plasma membrane. |
|
GO:0043229
|
intracellular organelle
|
Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, occurring within the cell. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton. Excludes the plasma membrane. |
|
GO:0044422
|
organelle part
|
Any constituent part of an organelle, an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes constituent parts of the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton, but excludes the plasma membrane. |
|
GO:0044446
|
intracellular organelle part
|
A constituent part of an intracellular organelle, an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, occurring within the cell. Includes constituent parts of the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton but excludes the plasma membrane. |
|
GO:0043228
|
non-membrane-bounded organelle
|
Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, not bounded by a lipid bilayer membrane. Includes ribosomes, the cytoskeleton and chromosomes. |
|
GO:0043232
|
intracellular non-membrane-bounded organelle
|
Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, not bounded by a lipid bilayer membrane and occurring within the cell. Includes ribosomes, the cytoskeleton and chromosomes. |
|
GO:0044427
|
chromosomal part
|
Any constituent part of a chromosome, a structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information. |
|
GO:0032993
|
protein-DNA complex
|
A macromolecular complex containing both protein and DNA molecules. |
|
GO:0044815
|
DNA packaging complex
|
A protein complex that plays a role in the process of DNA packaging. |
