Label	Id	Description
cell killing	GO_0001906	[Any process in an organism that results in the killing of its own cells or those of another organism, including in some cases the death of the other organism. Killing here refers to the induction of death in one cell by another cell, not cell-autonomous death due to internal or other environmental conditions.]
negative regulation of cell killing	GO_0031342	[Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cell killing.]
positive regulation of cell killing	GO_0031343	[Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of cell killing.]
neural groove	UBERON_0005061	[The median dorsal longitudinal groove formed in the embryo by the neural plate after the appearance of the neural folds.]
neural plate	UBERON_0003075	[A region of embryonic ectodermal cells that lie directly above the notochord. During neurulation, they change shape and produce an infolding of the neural plate (the neural fold) that then seals to form the neural tube[XAO]. The earliest recognizable dorsal ectodermal primordium of the central nervous system present near the end of gastrulation before infolding to form the neural keel; consists of a thickened pseudostratified epithelium[ZFA]]
neural fold	UBERON_0005062	[One of the two elevated edges of the neural groove[GO,MP].]
epithelial fold	UBERON_0005157	[An epithelial sheet bent on a linear axis.]
negative regulation of cellular component organization	GO_0051129	[Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of a process involved in the formation, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cell structures, including the plasma membrane and any external encapsulating structures such as the cell wall and cell envelope.]
biological role	CHEBI_24432	[A role played by the molecular entity or part thereof within a biological context.]
role	CHEBI_50906	[A role is particular behaviour which a material entity may exhibit.]
positive regulation of smooth muscle contraction	GO_0045987	[Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of smooth muscle contraction.]
regulation of smooth muscle contraction	GO_0006940	[Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of smooth muscle contraction.]
smooth muscle contraction	GO_0006939	[A process in which force is generated within smooth muscle tissue, resulting in a change in muscle geometry. Force generation involves a chemo-mechanical energy conversion step that is carried out by the actin/myosin complex activity, which generates force through ATP hydrolysis. Smooth muscle differs from striated muscle in the much higher actin/myosin ratio, the absence of conspicuous sarcomeres and the ability to contract to a much smaller fraction of its resting length.]
chemical entity	CHEBI_24431	[A chemical entity is a physical entity of interest in chemistry including molecular entities, parts thereof, and chemical substances.]
object	BFO_0000030
group	CHEBI_24433	[A defined linked collection of atoms or a single atom within a molecular entity.]
negative regulation of smooth muscle contraction	GO_0045986	[Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of smooth muscle contraction.]
positive regulation of cellular component organization	GO_0051130	[Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of a process involved in the formation, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cell structures, including the plasma membrane and any external encapsulating structures such as the cell wall and cell envelope.]
myofibril	GO_0030016	[The contractile element of skeletal and cardiac muscle; a long, highly organized bundle of actin, myosin, and other proteins that contracts by a sliding filament mechanism.]
contractile fiber	GO_0043292	[Fibers, composed of actin, myosin, and associated proteins, found in cells of smooth or striated muscle.]
