negative regulation of mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone | biological process | Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of mitochondrial electron transport, NADH to ubiquinone. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:dph, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:23530063] |
positive regulation of glutathione peroxidase activity | biological process | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of glutathione peroxidase activity. [GO_REF:0000059, GOC:bf, GOC:PARL, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:23507046] |
positive regulation of hydrogen peroxide catabolic process | biological process | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of hydrogen peroxide catabolic process. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:bf, GOC:PARL, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:23507046] |
regulation of synaptic vesicle recycling | biological process | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of synaptic vesicle recycling. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:pad, GOC:PARL, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:22745285] |
regulation of reactive oxygen species biosynthetic process | biological process | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of reactive oxygen species biosynthetic process. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:bf, GOC:PARL, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:24252804] |
positive regulation of protein localization to cell periphery | biological process | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of protein localization to cell periphery. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:18216290] |
negative regulation of chaperone-mediated autophagy | biological process | Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of chaperone-mediated autophagy. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:pad, GOC:PARL, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:20176123] |
regulation of presynapse assembly | biological process | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of presynapse assembly. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:bc, GOC:PARL, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:25533483] |
amyloid fibril formation | biological process | The generation of amyloid fibrils, insoluble fibrous protein aggregates exhibiting beta sheet structure, from proteins. [GOC:cvs, GOC:jj, GOC:ppm, GOC:sj, PMID:21148556, PMID:22817896, PMID:28937655, PMID:29654159] |
synapse organization | biological process | A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a synapse, the junction between a neuron and a target (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell). [GOC:ai, GOC:pr] |
chemical synaptic transmission | biological process | The vesicular release of classical neurotransmitter molecules from a presynapse, across a chemical synapse, the subsequent activation of neurotransmitter receptors at the postsynapse of a target cell (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) and the effects of this activation on the postsynaptic membrane potential and ionic composition of the postsynaptic cytosol. This process encompasses both spontaneous and evoked release of neurotransmitter and all parts of synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Evoked transmission starts with the arrival of an action potential at the presynapse. [GOC:jl, MeSH:D009435] |
