CELL ONTOLOGY - ANNOTATIONS

The Cell Ontology (CL) is downloaded weekly from the SourceForge CVS repository at http://obo.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/obo/obo/ontology/anatomy/cell_type/. For more information about this ontology, see the NCBO Bioportal page for the Cell type ontology at http://bioportal.bioontology.org/ontologies/1006, or Bard et al, An ontology for cell types. Genome Biol. 2005;6(2):R21.

Definition:A material entity of anatomical origin (part of or deriving from an organism) that has as its parts a maximally connected cell compartment surrounded by a plasma membrane.
Comment:The definition of cell is intended to represent all cells, and thus a cell is defined as a material entity and not an anatomical structure, which implies that it is part of an organism (or the entirety of one).
