All terms in GO

Label	Id	Description
cellular response to leptin stimulus	GO_0044320	[Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a leptin stimulus. Leptin is a hormone manufactured primarily in the adipocytes of white adipose tissue, and the level of circulating leptin is directly proportional to the total amount of fat in the body. It plays a key role in regulating energy intake and energy expenditure, including appetite and metabolism.]
cellular response to hormone stimulus	GO_0032870	[Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a hormone stimulus.]
response to leptin	GO_0044321	[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 a leptin stimulus. Leptin is a hormone manufactured primarily in the adipocytes of white adipose tissue, and the level of circulating leptin is directly proportional to the total amount of fat in the body. It plays a key role in regulating energy intake and energy expenditure, including appetite and metabolism].]
methanogenesis, from methanol	GO_0019387	[The formation of methane, a colorless, odorless, flammable gas with the formula CH4, from other components, including methanol.]
response to hormone	GO_0009725	[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 a hormone stimulus.]
galactose catabolic process	GO_0019388	[The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of galactose, the aldohexose galacto-hexose.]
galactose metabolic process	GO_0006012	[The chemical reactions and pathways involving galactose, the aldohexose galacto-hexose. D-galactose is widely distributed in combined form in plants, animals and microorganisms as a constituent of oligo- and polysaccharides; it also occurs in galactolipids and as its glucoside in lactose and melibiose.]
endoplasmic reticulum quality control compartment	GO_0044322	[A subcompartment of the endoplasmic reticulum in which proteins with improper or incorrect folding accumulate. Enzymes in this compartment direct proteins with major folding problems to translocation to the cytosol and degradation, and proteins with minor folding problems to the ER, to interact with chaperon proteins.]
endoplasmic reticulum	GO_0005783	[The irregular network of unit membranes, visible only by electron microscopy, that occurs in the cytoplasm of many eukaryotic cells. The membranes form a complex meshwork of tubular channels, which are often expanded into slitlike cavities called cisternae. The ER takes two forms, rough (or granular), with ribosomes adhering to the outer surface, and smooth (with no ribosomes attached).]
retinoic acid-responsive element binding	GO_0044323	[Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a retinoic acid-responsive element, a variable direct repeat of the sequence PuGGTCA spaced by five nucleotides (DR5) found in the promoters of retinoic acid-responsive genes, to which retinoic acid receptors bind.]
RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding	GO_0000978	[Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a specific upstream regulatory DNA sequence (transcription factor recognition sequence or binding site) located in cis relative to the transcription start site (i.e., on the same strand of DNA) of a gene transcribed by RNA polymerase II.]
regulation of transcription involved in anterior/posterior axis specification	GO_0044324	[Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of transcription that contributes to the specification of the anterior/posterior axis.]
regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II	GO_0006357	[Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II.]
anterior/posterior axis specification	GO_0009948	[The establishment, maintenance and elaboration of the anterior/posterior axis. The anterior-posterior axis is defined by a line that runs from the head or mouth of an organism to the tail or opposite end of the organism.]
ion channel binding	GO_0044325	[Interacting selectively and non-covalently with one or more specific sites on an ion channel, a protein complex that spans a membrane and forms a water-filled channel across the phospholipid bilayer allowing selective ion transport down its electrochemical gradient.]
fatty acid oxidation	GO_0019395	[The removal of one or more electrons from a fatty acid, with or without the concomitant removal of a proton or protons, by reaction with an electron-accepting substance, by addition of oxygen or by removal of hydrogen.]
lipid oxidation	GO_0034440	[The removal of one or more electrons from a lipid, with or without the concomitant removal of a proton or protons, by reaction with an electron-accepting substance, by addition of oxygen or by removal of hydrogen.]
macropinocytosis	GO_0044351	[An endocytosis process that results in the uptake of liquid material by cells from their external environment by the 'ruffling' of the cell membrane to form heterogeneously sized intracellular vesicles called macropinosomes, which can be up to 5 micrometers in size.]
pinocytosis	GO_0006907	[An endocytosis process that results in the uptake of liquid material by cells from their external environment; literally 'cell drinking'. Liquid is enclosed in vesicles, called pinosomes, formed by invagination of the plasma membrane.]
gallate metabolic process	GO_0018918	[The chemical reactions and pathways involving gallate, the anion of gallic acid (3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid). The esters and polyesters are widely distributed in angiosperms.]
