• GeneToGoTermAssociation
• MacromolecularMachineToBiologicalProcessAssociation - A functional association between a macromolecular machine (gene, gene product or complex) and a biological process or pathway (as represented in the GO biological process branch), where the entity carries out some part of the process, regulates it, or acts upstream of it
• MacromolecularMachineToCellularComponentAssociation - A functional association between a macromolecular machine (gene, gene product or complex) and a cellular component (as represented in the GO cellular component branch), where the entity carries out its function in the cellular component
• MacromolecularMachineToMolecularActivityAssociation - A functional association between a macromolecular machine (gene, gene product or complex) and a molecular activity (as represented in the GO molecular function branch), where the entity carries out the activity, or contributes to its execution
