Any process that generates guanine, 2-amino-6-hydroxypurine, from derivatives of it without de novo synthesis. Any process that generates adenine, 6-aminopurine, from derivatives of it without de novo synthesis. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of nucleobases, nucleosides and nucleotides. The chemical reactions and pathways involving purine bases, one of the two classes of nitrogen-containing ring compounds found in DNA and RNA, which include adenine and guanine. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a pigment, any general or particular coloring matter in living organisms, e.g. melanin. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a nucleobase, a nitrogenous base that is a constituent of a nucleic acid. Any process that generates a purine, any nucleobase, nucleoside, nucleotide or nucleic acid that contains a purine base, from derivatives of them without de novo synthesis. Any process that generates hypoxanthine, 6-hydroxy purine, from derivatives of it without de novo synthesis. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of purine bases, one of the two classes of nitrogen-containing ring compounds found in DNA and RNA, which include adenine and guanine. Any process that generates purine bases, one of the two classes of nitrogen-containing ring compounds found in DNA and RNA, from derivatives of them without de novo synthesis. Any process which produces a useful metabolic compound from derivatives of it without de novo synthesis, as carried out by individual cells. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of heterocyclic compounds, those with a cyclic molecular structure and at least two different atoms in the ring (or rings).
