Term:phytosteroid biosynthetic process
go back to main search page
Accession:GO:0016129 term browser browse the term
Definition:The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of phytosteroids, steroids that differ from animal steroids in having substitutions at C24 and/or a double bond at C22. Phytosteroids are so named because they occur in higher plants; some, notably ergosterol, are also found in fungi.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: phytosteroid anabolism;   phytosteroid biosynthesis;   phytosteroid formation;   phytosteroid synthesis
