General Information
Term DIF-1 biosynthetic process ID (Ontology) GO:0031148 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of 1-(3,5-dichloro-2,6-dihydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)hexan-1-one, also known as DIF-1, differentiation-inducing factor-1. DIF-1 is a secreted chlorinated molecule that controls cell fate during development of Dictyostelium cells.[ PubMed:10706822 ]
Also Known As "1-(3,5-dichloro-2,6-dihydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)hexan-1-one anabolism" ; "1-(3,5-dichloro-2,6-dihydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)hexan-1-one biosynthesis" ; "1-(3,5-dichloro-2,6-dihydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl)hexan-1-one biosynthetic process" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
