General Information
Term heme B biosynthetic process ID (Ontology) GO:0006785 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of heme B, a Fe(II) porphyrin complex readily isolated from the hemoglobin of beef blood, but also found in other proteins including other hemoglobins, myoglobins, cytochromes P-450, catalases, peroxidases as well as b type cytochromes.[ PubMed:29414780 ]
Also Known As "haem B biosynthesis" ; "haem B biosynthetic process" ; "heme B anabolism" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
