EOG8QJV3R GO:0043005 10/89 neuron projection cellular_component "A prolongation or process extending from a nerve cell, e.g. an axon or dendrite." [GOC:jl, http://www.cogsci.princeton.edu/~wn/] EOG8QJV3R GO:0005886 1/89 plasma membrane cellular_component "The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins." [ISBN:0716731363] EOG8QJV3R GO:0031201 1/89 SNARE complex cellular_component "A protein complex involved in membrane fusion; a stable ternary complex consisting of a four-helix bundle, usually formed from one R-SNARE and three Q-SNAREs with an ionic layer sandwiched between hydrophobic layers. One well-characterized example is the neuronal SNARE complex formed of synaptobrevin 2, syntaxin 1a, and SNAP-25." [GOC:bhm, GOC:pr, PMID:10872468, PMID:19450911] EOG8QJV3R GO:0097352 1/89 autophagosome maturation biological_process "The process in which autophagosomes, double-membraned vacuoles containing cytoplasmic material fuse with a vacuole (yeast) or lysosome (e.g. mammals and insects). In the case of yeast, inner membrane-bounded structures (autophagic bodies) appear in the vacuole. Fusion provides an acidic environment and digestive function to the interior of the autophagosome." [GOC:autophagy, GOC:lf, PMID:11099404, PMID:16874026, PMID:17534139] EOG8QJV3R GO:0016021 1/89 integral component of membrane cellular_component "The component of a membrane consisting of the gene products and protein complexes having at least some part of their peptide sequence embedded in the hydrophobic region of the membrane." [GOC:dos, GOC:go_curators] EOG8QJV3R GO:0016192 1/89 vesicle-mediated transport biological_process "A cellular transport process in which transported substances are moved in membrane-bounded vesicles; transported substances are enclosed in the vesicle lumen or located in the vesicle membrane. The process begins with a step that directs a substance to the forming vesicle, and includes vesicle budding and coating. Vesicles are then targeted to, and fuse with, an acceptor membrane." [GOC:ai, GOC:mah, ISBN:08789310662000] EOG8QJV3R GO:0000149 1/89 SNARE binding molecular_function "Interacting selectively and non-covalently with a SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attached protein receptor) protein." [PMID:12642621] EOG8QJV3R GO:0005484 1/89 SNAP receptor activity molecular_function "Acting as a marker to identify a membrane and interacting selectively with one or more SNAREs on another membrane to mediate membrane fusion." [GOC:mah, PMID:14570579] EOG8QJV3R GO:0000046 1/89 autophagosome maturation biological_process "The process in which autophagosomes, double-membraned vacuoles containing cytoplasmic material fuse with a vacuole (yeast) or lysosome (e.g. mammals and insects). In the case of yeast, inner membrane-bounded structures (autophagic bodies) appear in the vacuole. Fusion provides an acidic environment and digestive function to the interior of the autophagosome."

Gustation involves the direct detection of chemical composition, usually through contact with chemoreceptor cells. This is a neurological process." [GOC:ai, http://www.onelook.com/]
