General Information
Term beta-alanine biosynthetic process ID (Ontology) GO:0019483 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of beta-alanine (3-aminopropanoic acid), an achiral amino acid and an isomer of alanine. It occurs free (e.g. in brain) and in combination (e.g. in pantothenate) but it is not a constituent of proteins.[ ISBN:0198506732 ]
Also Known As "beta-alanine anabolism" ; "beta-alanine biosynthesis" ; "beta-alanine formation" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
