HELP

This is one of three sections showing Gene Ontology enrichment of the current module: in this case for biological processes.

The graph shows the hierarchy of the GO categories, their enrichment for the current module is color coded, and the blue number beside the category is the minus log ten p-value of the enrichment. (Calculated using the standard hypergeometric test.) The color of the arrows code «is a» (cyan) and «part of» relationships.

The tree was built the following way. First all GO terms with more significant enrichment p-value than 0.05 were collected. Then all paths from these terms to the root node of the GO tree were included too. If a GO term is included more than once in the tree, then the green numbers show 1) the id of the node, this makes it easier to find other appereances of the term, and 2) the number of appearences.

Note that the same GO category might show up on the graph many times. This is because the GO was «straightened» for this graph, i.e. if there are more paths from a GO term to the root node of the tree, all of them are included. The green numbers

Move the mouse cursor over the terms to get their definition. Clicking on them takes you to the corresponding Gene Ontology web page.

If you cannot see a graph here at all, that means that there were no significantly enriched GO categories, at the 0.05 level.

A change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus.

regulation of transport

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore.

negative regulation of transport

Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore.

localization

Any process by which a cell, a substance, or a cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, is transported to, and/or maintained in a specific location.

cofactor metabolic process

The chemical reactions and pathways involving a cofactor, a substance that is required for the activity of an enzyme or other protein. Cofactors may be inorganic, such as the metal atoms zinc, iron, and copper in certain forms, or organic, in which case they are referred to as coenzymes. Cofactors may either be bound tightly to active sites or bind loosely with the substrate.

establishment of localization

The directed movement of a cell, substance or cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, to a specific location.

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.

positive regulation of multicellular organismal process

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of an organismal process, any of the processes pertinent to the function of an organism above the cellular level; includes the integrated processes of tissues and organs.

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.

regulation of protein metabolic process

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving a protein.

positive regulation of protein metabolic process

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving a protein.

protein maturation

Any process leading to the attainment of the full functional capacity of a protein.

detection of stimulus

The series of events in which a stimulus is received by a cell or organism and converted into a molecular signal.

multi-organism process

Any process by which an organism has an effect on another organism of the same or different species.

regulation of fibrinolysis

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of fibrinolysis, an ongoing process that solubilizes fibrin, resulting in the removal of small blood clots.

positive regulation of fibrinolysis

Any process that activates, maintains or increases the frequency, rate or extent of fibrinolysis, an ongoing process that solubilizes fibrin, resulting in the removal of small blood clots.

lipid homeostasis

Any process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady-state of lipid within an organism or cell.

sterol homeostasis

Any process involved in the maintenance of an internal steady-state of sterol within an organism or cell.

regulation of macromolecule metabolic process

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of 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.

regulation of wound healing

Any process that modulates the rate, frequency, or extent of the series of events that restore integrity to a damaged tissue, following an injury.

macromolecular complex assembly

The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of macromolecules to form a complex.

protein-lipid complex assembly

The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of proteins and lipids to form a protein-lipid complex.

biological regulation

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of any biological process, quality or function.

regulation of biological quality

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent 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.

regulation of protein processing

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of protein processing, the posttranslational modification of a protein leading to the attainment of the full functional capacity of the protein.

regulation of primary metabolic process

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways within a cell or an organism involving those compounds formed as a part of the normal anabolic and catabolic processes. These processes take place in most, if not all, cells of the organism.

regulation of response to stress

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a response to stress. Response to stress is a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a disturbance in organismal or cellular homeostasis, usually, but not necessarily, exogenous (e.g. temperature, humidity, ionizing radiation).
