Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

Any constituent part of the cytoplasm, all of the contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. Any member of a family of organelles found in the cytoplasm of plants and some protists, which are membrane-bounded and contain DNA. Plant plastids develop from a common type, the proplastid. The proteinaceous ground substance of plastids. A structure composed of a very long molecule of DNA and associated proteins (e.g. histones) that carries hereditary information. Any constituent part of a plastid, a member of a family of organelles found in the cytoplasm of plants and some protists, which are membrane-bounded and contain DNA. Plant plastids develop from a common type, the proplastid. A constituent part of an intracellular organelle, an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, occurring within the cell. Includes constituent parts of the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton but excludes the plasma membrane. A chromosome found in the cytoplasm. A circular DNA molecule containing plastid encoded genes. A circular DNA molecule containing chloroplast encoded genes. The region of a bacterial cell, mitochondrion or chloroplast to which the DNA is confined. The region of a plastid to which the DNA is confined.
