GO TERM SUMMARY
|
Name: |
farnesyl diphosphate biosynthetic process, mevalonate pathway |
Acc: |
GO:0010142 |
Aspect: |
Biological Process |
Desc: |
The pathway that converts acetate, in the form of acetyl-CoA, to farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) through a series of mevalonate intermediates. Farnesyl diphosphate is an important substrate for other essential pathways, such as biosynthesis of sterols. |
Synonyms:
- Ac-MVA pathway
- acetate-mevalonate pathway
- farnesyl diphosphate formation, mevalonate pathway
- farnesyl diphosphate anabolism, mevalonate pathway
- farnesyl diphosphate synthesis, mevalonate pathway
- isoprenoid pathway
