GO:0003824
|
catalytic activity
|
Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic. |
GO:0008152

Metabolic processes typically transform small molecules, but also include macromolecular processes such as DNA repair and replication, and protein synthesis and degradation. |
GO:0008168
|

GO:0044237
|
cellular metabolic process

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:0010468
|
regulation of gene expression
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression. Gene expression is the process in which a gene's coding sequence is converted into a mature gene product or products (proteins or RNA). This includes the production of an RNA transcript as well as any processing to produce a mature RNA product or an mRNA (for protein-coding genes) and the translation of that mRNA into protein. Protein maturation is included when required to form an active form of a product from an inactive precursor form. |
GO:0016740
|
transferase activity
|
Catalysis of the transfer of a group, e.g. a methyl group, glycosyl group, acyl group, phosphorus-containing, or other groups, from one compound (generally regarded as the donor) to another compound (generally regarded as the acceptor). Transferase is the systematic name for any enzyme of EC class 2. |
GO:0006306

|
The covalent transfer of a methyl group to either N-6 of adenine or C-5 or N-4 of cytosine. |
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. |

methylation
|
The process in which a methyl group is covalently attached to a molecule. |
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: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:0040029
|
regulation of gene expression, epigenetic
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression; the process is mitotically or meiotically heritable, or is stably self-propagated in the cytoplasm of a resting cell, and does not entail a change in DNA sequence. |
GO:0008150
|
