instances
nameID Preferred ontology identifier
asymmetric synapse An 'asymmetric synapse' is characterized by rounded vesicles in the presynaptic cell and a prominent postsynaptic density. Asymmetric synapses are typically excitatory. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/asymmetricSynapse JSON-LD
axon An 'axon' is the long process of a neuron that conducts nerve impulses, usually away from the cell body to the terminals which are the site of storage and release of neurotransmitter (Gene Ontology). https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/axon http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao1770195789 JSON-LD , Interlex
axon terminal The distal terminations of axons which are specialized for the release of neurotransmitters. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/axonTerminal http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao2007137787 JSON-LD , Interlex , Knowledge Space
dendrite A 'dendrite' is a branching protoplasmic process of a neuron that receives and integrates signals coming from axons of other neurons, and conveys the resulting signal to the body of the cell (Gene Ontology). https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/dendrite http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao1211023249 JSON-LD , Interlex
dendritic spine A 'dendritic spine' is a protrusion from a dendrite. Spines are specialised subcellular compartments involved in the synaptic transmission. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/dendriticSpine http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao1799103720 JSON-LD , Interlex
mitochondrion A 'mitochondrion' is a semiautonomous, self replicating organelle that occurs in varying numbers, shapes, and sizes in the cytoplasm of virtually all eukaryotic cells. It is notably the site of tissue respiration (Gene Ontology). https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/mitochondrion http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao1860313010 JSON-LD , Interlex
nerve fiber A threadlike extension of a nerve cell within the nervous system which consists of an axon and, if myelinated, a myelin sheath. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/nerveFiber http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/UBERON_0006134 JSON-LD , Interlex , Knowledge Space
neurite A 'neurite' is a small neuronal process on developing neurons that ultimately grow out into axons or dendrites under the control of growth stimulating or inhibiting factors from their direct extracellular environment. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/neurite JSON-LD
neurofilament A 'neurofilament' is a type of intermediate filament found in the core of neuronal axons. Neurofilaments are responsible for the radial growth of an axon and determine axonal diameter. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/neurofilament http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao1316272517 JSON-LD , Interlex
nucleus A 'nucleus' is a membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells that contains the chromosomes. It is the primary site of DNA replication and RNA synthesis in the cell (Gene Ontology) https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/nucleus http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao1702920020 JSON-LD , Interlex
symmetric synapse A 'symmetric synapse' has flattened or elongated vesicles, and does not contain a prominent postsynaptic density. Symmetric synapses are typically inhibitory. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/symmetricSynapse JSON-LD
synaptic bouton A 'synaptic bouton' is a terminal pre-synaptic ending of an axon or axon collateral. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/synapticBouton http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao187426937 JSON-LD , Interlex
synaptic protein A 'synaptic protein' belongs to a family of neuron-specific phosphoric proteins associated with synaptic vesicles. Synaptic proteins are present on the surface of almost all synaptic particles and bind to the cytoskeleton. https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/synapticProtein http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao936599761 JSON-LD , Interlex
synaptic vesicle A 'synaptic vesicle' is a secretory organelle (~ 50 nm in diameter) released from the pre-synaptic nerve terminal. It accumulates high concentrations of neurotransmitters and secretes these into the synaptic cleft by fusion with the 'active zone' of the pre-synaptic plasma membrane (modified from Gene Ontology). https://openminds.ebrains.eu/instances/subcellularEntity/synapticVesicle http://uri.neuinfo.org/nif/nifstd/sao1071221672 JSON-LD , Interlex
