Circular DNA structures that are not part of a chromosome.

Metabolic processes by which individual cells transform chemical substances.

The directed movement of sterols into, out of, within or between cells. Sterols are steroids with one or more hydroxyl groups and a hydrocarbon side-chain in the molecule.

Reactions involving those compounds which are formed as a part of the normal anabolic and catabolic processes. These processes take place in most, if not all, cells of the organism.

The incorporation of a bacteriophage genome into the genome of its bacterial host.

The directed movement of the hexose monosaccharide glucose into a cell or organelle.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the import of the hexose monosaccharide glucose into a cell or organelle.

Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate of the import of the hexose monosaccharide glucose into a cell or organelle.

Any process that activates or increases the rate of the import of the hexose monosaccharide glucose into a cell or organelle.

The formation of glycerol, 1,2,3-propanetriol, from simpler components, including pyruvate.

Movement of a vesicle along an actin filament, mediated by motor proteins.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of signal transduction mediated by the JNK cascade.

Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate of signal transduction mediated by the JNK cascade.

A specialized region of connection between two cells or between a cell and the extracellular matrix.

A specialized region of connection between a cell and the extracellular matrix.

Point of contact between the basal surface of epithelial cells and the basal lamina. Morphologically resembles desmosomes; attached to intermediate filaments.

Button-like point of intercellular contact through which the intermediate filaments of adjacent cells are connected indirectly.

The dispersed less dense form of chromatin in the interphase nucleus. It exists in at least two forms, a some being in the form of transcriptionally active chromatin which is the least condensed, while the rest is inactive euchromatin which is more condensed than active chromatin but less condensed than heterochromatin.
