General Information
Term beta-lactam antibiotic biosynthetic process ID (Ontology) GO:0030654 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a beta-lactam antibiotic, any member of a class of natural or semisynthetic antibiotics whose characteristic feature is a strained, four-membered beta-lactam ring. They include the penicillins and many of the cephalosporins.[ ISBN:0198506732 ]
Also Known As "beta-lactam antibiotic anabolism" ; "beta-lactam antibiotic biosynthesis" ; "beta-lactam antibiotic formation" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
