General Information
Term terpenoid biosynthetic process, mevalonate-independent ID (Ontology) GO:0051483 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of terpenoids, independent of mevalonate. Isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) is the fundamental unit in terpenoid biosynthesis, and in mevalonate-independent biosynthesis, it is produced from pyruvate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate via intermediates including 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate.
Also Known As "mevalonate-independent terpenoid biosynthesis" ; "mevalonate-independent terpenoid biosynthetic process" ; "terpenoid anabolism, mevalonate-independent" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
