General Information
Term macromolecule biosynthetic process ID (Ontology) GO:0009059 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a macromolecule, any molecule of high relative molecular mass, the structure of which essentially comprises the multiple repetition of units derived, actually or conceptually, from molecules of low relative molecular mass.
Also Known As "biopolymer biosynthetic process" ; "macromolecule anabolism" ; "macromolecule biosynthesis" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
