The autophagic process in which mitochondria are delivered to the vacuole and degraded in response to changing cellular conditions.

A programmed cell death process which begins when a cell receives an internal (e.g. DNA damage) or external signal (e.g. an extracellular death ligand), and proceeds through a series of biochemical events (signaling pathway phase) which trigger an execution phase. The execution phase is the last step of an apoptotic process, and is typically characterized by rounding-up of the cell, retraction of pseudopodes, reduction of cellular volume (pyknosis), chromatin condensation, nuclear fragmentation (karyorrhexis), plasma membrane blebbing and fragmentation of the cell into apoptotic bodies. When the execution phase is completed, the cell has died.

Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of merging of two or more mitochondria within a cell to form a single compartment.

Any protein maturation process achieved by the cleavage of a peptide bond or bonds within a protein. Protein maturation is the process leading to the attainment of the full functional capacity of a protein.

Disassembly of actin filaments by the removal of actin monomers from a filament.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of embryonic development.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of embryonic development.

Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process.

Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of cell death by apoptotic process.

Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of programmed cell death, cell death resulting from activation of endogenous cellular processes.

Any process that modulates the physical form of a synapse, the junction between a neuron and a target (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell).

Reactions triggered in response to the presence of a Gram-negative bacterium that act to protect the cell or organism.

Any process that increases brood size. Brood size is the number of progeny that survive embryogenesis and are cared for at one time.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of oviposition.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of oviposition.

Any apoptotic process that is involved in anatomical structure development.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of fertilization.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of synapse pruning.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of synapse pruning.

A semiautonomous, self replicating organelle that occurs in varying numbers, shapes, and sizes in the cytoplasm of virtually all eukaryotic cells. It is notably the site of tissue respiration.

The outer, i.e. cytoplasm-facing, lipid bilayer of the mitochondrial envelope.

A lipid bilayer along with all the proteins and protein complexes embedded in it an attached to it.

A membrane that is one of the two lipid bilayers of an organelle envelope or the outermost membrane of single membrane bound organelle.

The portion of a neuron that includes the nucleus, but excludes cell projections such as axons and dendrites.

Cytoplasm situated near, or occurring around, the nucleus.

The part of a synapse that is part of the presynaptic cell.
