Biological Process: GO:0006412 [+/–] show term definition
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a protein. This is a ribosome-mediated process in which the information in messenger RNA (mRNA) is used to specify the sequence of amino acids in the protein.
Cellular component: GO:0000315 [+/–] show term definition
The larger of the two subunits of an organellar ribosome. Two sites on the ribosomal large subunit are involved in translation: the aminoacyl site (A site) and peptidyl site (P site).
GO:0005842 [+/–] show term definition
The large subunit of a ribosome; has a sedimentation coefficient of 60S. As in, but not restricted to, the eukaryotes (Eukaryota, ncbi_taxonomy_id:2759).
GO:0005622 [+/–] show term definition
The living contents of a cell; the matter contained within (but not including) the plasma membrane, usually taken to exclude large vacuoles and masses of secretory or ingested material. In eukaryotes it includes the nucleus and cytoplasm." [ISBN:0198506732 "Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
GO:0005840 [+/–] show term definition
An intracellular organelle, about 200 A in diameter, consisting of RNA and protein. It is the site of protein biosynthesis resulting from translation of messenger RNA (mRNA). It consists of two subunits, one large and one small, each containing only protein and RNA. Both the ribosome and its subunits are characterized by their sedimentation coefficients, expressed in Svedberg units (symbol: S). Hence, the prokaryotic ribosome (70S) comprises a large (50S) subunit and a small (30S) subunit, while the eukaryotic ribosome (80S) comprises a large (60S) subunit and a small (40S) subunit. Two sites on the ribosomal large subunit are involved in translation, namely the aminoacyl site (A site) and peptidyl site (P site). Ribosomes from prokaryotes, eukaryotes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts have characteristically distinct ribosomal proteins." [ISBN:0198506732 "Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
Molecular Function: GO:0003735 [+/–] show term definition
The action of a molecule that contributes to the structural integrity of the ribosome.
