General Information

Term

glucose metabolic process

ID (Ontology)

GO:0006006 (Gene Ontology)

Definition

The chemical reactions and pathways involving glucose, the aldohexose gluco-hexose. D-glucose is dextrorotatory and is sometimes known as dextrose; it is an important source of energy for living organisms and is found free as well as combined in homo- and hetero-oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.[ ISBN:0198506732 ]

Also Known As
