GO:0090305 | nucleic acid phosphodiester bond hydrolysis | biological_process | The nucleic acid metabolic process in which the phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides are cleaved by hydrolysis. [GOC:dph, GOC:tb] |
GO:0140097 | catalytic activity, acting on DNA | molecular_function | Catalytic activity that acts to modify DNA. [GOC:molecular_function_refactoring, GOC:pdt] |
GO:0008152 | metabolic process | biological_process | The chemical reactions and pathways, including anabolism and catabolism, by which living organisms transform chemical substances. Metabolic processes typically transform small molecules, but also include macromolecular processes such as DNA repair and replication, and protein synthesis and degradation. [GOC:go_curators, ISBN:0198547684] |
GO:0006807 | nitrogen compound metabolic process | biological_process | The chemical reactions and pathways involving organic or inorganic compounds that contain nitrogen. [GOC:jl, ISBN:0198506732] |
GO:0003824 | catalytic activity | molecular_function | Catalysis of a biochemical reaction at physiological temperatures. In biologically catalyzed reactions, the reactants are known as substrates, and the catalysts are naturally occurring macromolecular substances known as enzymes. Enzymes possess specific binding sites for substrates, and are usually composed wholly or largely of protein, but RNA that has catalytic activity (ribozyme) is often also regarded as enzymatic. [GOC:vw, ISBN:0198506732] |
GO:0006725 | cellular aromatic compound metabolic process | biological_process | The chemical reactions and pathways involving aromatic compounds, any organic compound characterized by one or more planar rings, each of which contains conjugated double bonds and delocalized pi electrons, as carried out by individual cells. [GOC:ai, ISBN:0198506732] |
GO:0006310 | DNA recombination | biological_process | Any process in which a new genotype is formed by reassortment of genes resulting in gene combinations different from those that were present in the parents. In eukaryotes genetic recombination can occur by chromosome assortment, intrachromosomal recombination, or nonreciprocal interchromosomal recombination. Interchromosomal recombination occurs by crossing over. In bacteria it may occur by genetic transformation, conjugation, transduction, or F-duction. [ISBN:0198506732] |
GO:0090304 | nucleic acid metabolic process | biological_process | Any cellular metabolic process involving nucleic acids. [GOC:dph, GOC:tb] |
GO:0009987 | cellular process | biological_process | Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. [GOC:go_curators, GOC:isa_complete] |
GO:0006259 | DNA metabolic process | biological_process | Any cellular metabolic process involving deoxyribonucleic acid. This is one of the two main types of nucleic acid, consisting of a long, unbranched macromolecule formed from one, or more commonly, two, strands of linked deoxyribonucleotides. [ISBN:0198506732] |
GO:1901360 | organic cyclic compound metabolic process | biological_process | The chemical reactions and pathways involving organic cyclic compound. [GOC:TermGenie] |

GO:0034641 | cellular nitrogen compound metabolic process | biological_process | The chemical reactions and pathways involving various organic and inorganic nitrogenous compounds, as carried out by individual cells. [GOC:mah] |
GO:0005654 | nucleoplasm | cellular_component | That part of the nuclear content other than the chromosomes or the nucleolus. [GOC:ma, ISBN:0124325653] |
GO:0005634 | nucleus | cellular_component | A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent. [GOC:go_curators] |
