Label	Id	Description
star shaped	PATO_0002065	[A shape quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer's being arranged like rays or radii; radiating from a common center.]
G0 to G1 transition	GO_0045023	[The mitotic cell cycle phase transition whose occurrence commits the cell from the G0 quiescent state to the G1 phase. Under certain conditions, cells exit the cell cycle during G1 and remain in the G0 state as nongrowing, non-dividing (quiescent) cells. Appropriate stimulation of such cells induces them to return to G1 and resume growth and division. The G0 to G1 transition is accompanied by many changes in the program of gene expression.]
sequence-specific DNA binding transcription factor activity	GO_0003700	[Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific DNA sequence in order to modulate transcription. The transcription factor may or may not also interact selectively with a protein or macromolecular complex.]
transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding	GO_0000976	[Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific sequence of DNA that is part of a regulatory region that controls transcription of that section of the DNA. The transcribed region might be described as a gene, cistron, or operon.]
spindle	GO_0005819	[The array of microtubules and associated molecules that forms between opposite poles of a eukaryotic cell during mitosis or meiosis and serves to move the duplicated chromosomes apart.]
microtubule cytoskeleton	GO_0015630	[The part of the cytoskeleton (the internal framework of a cell) composed of microtubules and associated proteins.]
plasma membrane fusion	GO_0045026	[The joining of two or more lipid bilayer membranes that surround a cell.]
single-organism membrane fusion	GO_0044801	[The membrane organization process that joins two lipid bilayers to form a single membrane, involving only one organism.]
cytoplasmic transport	GO_0016482	[The directed movement of substances (such as macromolecules, small molecules, ions) into, out of, or within the cytoplasm of a cell.]
protein localization to nuclear periphery	GO_1990139	[A process in which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a location within the nuclear periphery.]
protein localization to nucleus	GO_0034504	[A process in which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a location within the nucleus.]
programmed cell death	GO_0012501	[A process which begins when a cell receives an internal or external signal and activates a series of biochemical events (signaling pathway). The process ends with the death of the cell.]
cytosol	GO_0005829	[The part of the cytoplasm that does not contain organelles but which does contain other particulate matter, such as protein complexes.]
nuclear chromosome segregation	GO_0098813	[The process in which genetic material, in the form of nuclear chromosomes, is organized into specific structures and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets. Nuclear chromosome segregation begins with the condensation of chromosomes, includes chromosome separation, and ends when chromosomes have completed movement to the spindle poles.]
actin-mediated cell contraction	GO_0070252	[The actin filament-based process in which cytoplasmic actin filaments slide past one another resulting in contraction of all or part of the cell body.]
substrate-dependent cell migration	GO_0006929	[The orderly movement of a cell from one site to another along a substrate such as the extracellular matrix; the migrating cell forms a protrusion that attaches to the substrate.]
cell migration	GO_0016477	[The controlled self-propelled movement of a cell from one site to a destination guided by molecular cues. Cell migration is a central process in the development and maintenance of multicellular organisms.]
intracellular organelle lumen	GO_0070013	[An organelle lumen that is part of an intracellular organelle.]
organelle lumen	GO_0043233	[The internal volume enclosed by the membranes of a particular organelle; includes the volume enclosed by a single organelle membrane, e.g. endoplasmic reticulum lumen, or the volume enclosed by the innermost of the two lipid bilayers of an organelle envelope, e.g. nuclear lumen.]
chromosome organization	GO_0051276	[A process that is carried out at the cellular level that results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of chromosomes, structures composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins that carries hereditary information. This term covers covalent modifications at the molecular level as well as spatial relationships among the major components of a chromosome.]
