    GlossaryGene Ontology

    standardized system categorizing gene functions across species

    Gene Ontology (GO) is a comprehensive framework that organizes information about gene functions across different species. It categorizes genes into three main aspects: biological processes (what the gene product does), cellular components (where the gene product is active), and molecular functions (how the gene product acts). This standardized vocabulary helps researchers understand gene roles and interactions, facilitating cross-species comparisons and enhancing biological research.
