4 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
axon The long process of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses, usually away from the cell body to the terminals and varicosities, which are sites of storage and release of neurotransmitter.
cytoplasm The contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
extracellular space That part of a multicellular organism outside the cells proper, usually taken to be outside the plasma membranes, and occupied by fluid.
postsynapse The part of a synapse that is part of the post-synaptic cell.

4 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
ghrelin receptor binding Binding to a ghrelin receptor.
growth hormone-releasing hormone activity The action characteristic of growth hormone-releasing hormone, any of a family of peptide hormones that act on the anterior pituitary to stimulate the secretion of growth hormone and exert a trophic effect on the gland.
hormone activity The action characteristic of a hormone, any substance formed in very small amounts in one specialized organ or group of cells and carried (sometimes in the bloodstream) to another organ or group of cells in the same organism, upon which it has a specific regulatory action. The term was originally applied to agents with a stimulatory physiological action in vertebrate animals (as opposed to a chalone, which has a depressant action). Usage is now extended to regulatory compounds in lower animals and plants, and to synthetic substances having comparable effects; all bind receptors and trigger some biological process.
protein tyrosine kinase activator activity Increases the activity of a protein tyrosine kinase, an enzyme which phosphorylates a tyrosyl phenolic group on a protein.

28 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
actin polymerization or depolymerization Assembly or disassembly of actin filaments by the addition or removal of actin monomers from a filament.
decidualization The cellular and vascular changes occurring in the endometrium of the pregnant uterus just after the onset of blastocyst implantation. This process involves the proliferation and differentiation of the fibroblast-like endometrial stromal cells into large, polyploid decidual cells that eventually form the maternal component of the placenta.
dendrite development The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the dendrite over time, from its formation to the mature structure.
excitatory postsynaptic potential A process that leads to a temporary increase in postsynaptic potential due to the flow of positively charged ions into the postsynaptic cell. The flow of ions that causes an EPSP is an excitatory postsynaptic current (EPSC) and makes it easier for the neuron to fire an action potential.
gastric acid secretion The regulated release of gastric acid (hydrochloric acid) by parietal or oxyntic cells during digestion.
negative regulation of apoptotic process Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process.
negative regulation of circadian sleep/wake cycle, REM sleep Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the duration or quality of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep.
negative regulation of endothelial cell proliferation Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the rate or extent of endothelial cell proliferation.
negative regulation of inflammatory response Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the inflammatory response.
negative regulation of insulin secretion Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of insulin.
negative regulation of interleukin-1 beta production Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of interleukin-1 beta production.
negative regulation of interleukin-6 production Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of interleukin-6 production.
negative regulation of locomotion Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of locomotion of a cell or organism.
negative regulation of tumor necrosis factor production Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of tumor necrosis factor production.
positive regulation of appetite Any process that increases appetite.
positive regulation of circadian sleep/wake cycle, non-REM sleep Any process that activates or increases the duration or quality of non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep.
positive regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cold-induced thermogenesis.
positive regulation of corticotropin secretion Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of corticotropin hormone from a cell.
positive regulation of cortisol secretion Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of cortisol from a cell.
positive regulation of cytosolic calcium ion concentration Any process that increases the concentration of calcium ions in the cytosol.
positive regulation of growth hormone secretion Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of growth hormone from a cell.
positive regulation of insulin secretion Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of insulin.
positive regulation of MAPK cascade Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of signal transduction mediated by the MAPK cascade.
positive regulation of response to food Any process that activates, maintains, or increases the rate of a response to a food stimulus.
positive regulation of synapse assembly Any process that activates, maintains or increases the frequency, rate or extent of synapse assembly, the aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form a synapse.
regulation of response to food Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of a response to a food stimulus.
response to estrogen Any process that results in 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 stimulus by an estrogen, C18 steroid hormones that can stimulate the development of female sexual characteristics.
synapse assembly The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of a set of components to form a synapse. This process ends when the synapse is mature (functional).
