Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of locomotion of a cell or organism.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the deposition of eggs, either fertilized or not, upon a surface or into a medium.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of muscle contraction.

A process in which an inorganic cation is transported from one side of a membrane to the other by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.

The directed movement of calcium ions from outside of a cell, across the plasma membrane and into the cytosol.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of muscle contraction.

The vesicular release of acetylcholine from a presynapse, across a chemical synapse, the subsequent activation of dopamine receptors at the postsynapse of a target cell (neuron, muscle, or secretory cell) and the effects of this activation on the postsynaptic membrane potential and ionic composition of the postsynaptic cytosol. This process encompasses both spontaneous and evoked release of neurotransmitter and all parts of synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Evoked transmission starts with the arrival of an action potential at the presynapse.

The process of synaptic transmission from a neuron to a muscle, across a synapse.

The process of synaptic transmission from a neuron to a muscle, across a synapse.

The process of synaptic transmission from a neuron to a muscle, across a synapse.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression. Gene expression is the process in which a gene's coding sequence is converted into a mature gene product or products (proteins or RNA). This includes the production of an RNA transcript as well as any processing to produce a mature RNA product or an mRNA or circRNA (for protein-coding genes) and the translation of that mRNA or circRNA into protein. Protein maturation is included when required to form an active form of a product from an inactive precursor form.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the regulated release of acetylcholine.

A process in which an ion is transported across a membrane.

Self-propelled movement of a cell or organism from one location to another.

Any process that modulates the contraction and relaxation movements of the pharyngeal muscle that mediates feeding in nematodes.

A process in which an inorganic cation is transported from one side of a membrane to the other by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.

A prolongation or process extending from a nerve cell, e.g. an axon or dendrite.

A specialized area of membrane facing the presynaptic membrane on the tip of the nerve ending and separated from it by a minute cleft (the synaptic cleft). Neurotransmitters cross the synaptic cleft and transmit the signal to the postsynaptic membrane.

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

A homo- or hetero-pentameric protein complex that forms a transmembrane channel through which ions may pass in response to acetylcholine binding.

The junction between a nerve fiber of one neuron and another neuron, muscle fiber or glial cell. As the nerve fiber approaches the synapse it enlarges into a specialized structure, the presynaptic nerve ending, which contains mitochondria and synaptic vesicles. At the tip of the nerve ending is the presynaptic membrane; facing it, and separated from it by a minute cleft (the synaptic cleft) is a specialized area of membrane on the receiving cell, known as the postsynaptic membrane. In response to the arrival of nerve impulses, the presynaptic nerve ending secretes molecules of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These diffuse across the cleft and transmit the signal to the postsynaptic membrane.
