single-organism process
|
A biological process that involves only one organism. |
GO:0008150
|
biological_process
|
Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. |
GO:0065007
|
biological regulation
|
Any process that modulates a measurable attribute of any biological process, quality or function. |
GO:0050789
|
regulation of biological process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a biological process. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule. |
GO:0048519
|
negative regulation of biological process
|
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of a biological process. Biological processes are regulated by many means; examples include the control of gene expression, protein modification or interaction with a protein or substrate molecule. |
GO:0044707
|
single-multicellular organism process
|
A biological process occurring within a single, multicellular organism. |
GO:0032501
|
multicellular organismal process
|
Any biological process, occurring at the level of a multicellular organism, pertinent to its function. |
GO:0060249
|
anatomical structure homeostasis
|
A homeostatic process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady state within a defined anatomical structure of an organism, including control of cellular proliferation and death and control of metabolic function. An anatomical structure is any biological entity that occupies space and is distinguished from its surroundings. Anatomical structures can be macroscopic such as a carpel, or microscopic such as an acrosome. |
GO:0065008
|
regulation of biological quality
|
Any process that modulates a qualitative or quantitative trait of a biological quality. A biological quality is a measurable attribute of an organism or part of an organism, such as size, mass, shape, color, etc. |
GO:0042592
|
homeostatic process
|
Any biological process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady state. |
GO:0048871
|
multicellular organismal homeostasis
|
Any process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady state at the level of the multicellular organism. |
GO:0051239
|
regulation of multicellular organismal process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a multicellular organismal process, the processes pertinent to the function of a multicellular organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs. |
GO:0051241
|
negative regulation of multicellular organismal process
|
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of an organismal process, the processes pertinent to the function of an organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs. |
GO:0001894
|
tissue homeostasis
|
A homeostatic process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady state within a defined tissue of an organism, including control of cellular proliferation and death and control of metabolic function. |
GO:0048771
|
tissue remodeling
|
The reorganization or renovation of existing tissues. This process can either change the characteristics of a tissue such as in blood vessel remodeling, or result in the dynamic equilibrium of a tissue such as in bone remodeling. |
GO:0032844
|
regulation of homeostatic process
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of a homeostatic process. |
GO:0032845
|
negative regulation of homeostatic process
|
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of a homeostatic process. |
GO:0034103
|
regulation of tissue remodeling
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of tissue remodeling. |
GO:0034104
|
negative regulation of tissue remodeling
|
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of tissue remodeling. |
GO:0046849
|
bone remodeling
|
The continuous turnover of bone matrix and mineral that involves first, an increase in resorption (osteoclastic activity) and later, reactive bone formation (osteoblastic activity). The process of bone remodeling takes place in the adult skeleton at discrete foci. The process ensures the mechanical integrity of the skeleton throughout life and plays an important role in calcium homeostasis. An imbalance in the regulation of bone resorption and bone formation results in many of the metabolic bone diseases, such as osteoporosis. |
GO:0045124
|
regulation of bone resorption
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of bone tissue loss (resorption). |
GO:0045453
|
bone resorption
|
The process in which specialized cells known as osteoclasts degrade the organic and inorganic portions of bone, and endocytose and transport the degradation products. |
GO:0046850
|
regulation of bone remodeling
|
Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of bone remodeling, the processes of bone formation and resorption that combine to maintain skeletal integrity. |
GO:0045779
|
negative regulation of bone resorption
|
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of bone resorption. |
GO:0046851
|
negative regulation of bone remodeling
|
Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of bone remodeling. |
