GO Term : GO:0097444 spine apparatus GO

Namespace:  cellular_component Obsolete:  false
description  A specialization of the endomembrane system found in some classes of neuron spines consisting of two or more closely apposed lamellae with interspersed electon dense material. The endomembrane component is continuous with the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

Identifier Name Description
GO:0044464 cell part Any constituent part of a cell, the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms.
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:0012505 endomembrane system A collection of membranous structures involved in transport within the cell. The main components of the endomembrane system are endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi bodies, vesicles, cell membrane and nuclear envelope. Members of the endomembrane system pass materials through each other or though the use of vesicles.
GO:0044463 cell projection part Any constituent part of a cell projection, a prolongation or process extending from a cell, e.g. a flagellum or axon.
GO:0042995 cell projection A prolongation or process extending from a cell, e.g. a flagellum or axon.
GO:0097458 neuron part Any constituent part of a neuron, the basic cellular unit of nervous tissue. A typical neuron consists of a cell body (often called the soma), an axon, and dendrites. Their purpose is to receive, conduct, and transmit impulses in the nervous system.
GO:0043005 neuron projection A prolongation or process extending from a nerve cell, e.g. an axon or dendrite.
GO:0044309 neuron spine A small membranous protrusion, often ending in a bulbous head and attached to the neuron by a narrow stalk or neck.
GO:0097444 spine apparatus A specialization of the endomembrane system found in some classes of neuron spines consisting of two or more closely apposed lamellae with interspersed electon dense material. The endomembrane component is continuous with the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
