Parent topics
- Biology [r]: The science of life — of complex, self-organizing, information-processing systems living in the past, present or future. [e]
- Biochemistry [r]: The chemistry of living things; a field of both biology and chemistry. [e]
Subtopics
General pathways
- Carbohydrate metabolism [r]: The various biochemical processes responsible for the formation, breakdown and interconversion of carbohydrates in living organisms. [e]
- Fatty acid metabolism [r]: Oxidative degradation of saturated fatty acids in which two-carbon units are sequentially removed from the molecule with each turn of the cycle, and metabolized so that it can be used as a source of energy in aerobic respiration. [e]
- Protein synthesis [r]: "a certain kind of natural production (or biosynthesis) of polypeptides for protein molecules according to a nucleic acid code" [e]
- Nucleic acid metabolism [r]: Process by which nucleotides are synthesized and degraded, using an anabolic mechanism generally involving chemical reaction of phosphate, pentose sugar, and a nitrogenous base. [e]
- Central metabolism [r]: Add brief definition or description
Anabolism
- Anabolic [r]: Biological processes that build larger molecules from smaller ones, and increase the size of bones, organs and muscles. [e]
- Biosynthesis [r]: The production of chemical metabolites by living systems. [e]
- Glycogenesis [r]: Conversion of glucose to glycogen, in which glucose molecules are added to chains of glycogen for storage, which is stimulated by insulin from the pancreas. [e]
- Gluconeogenesis [r]: Formation of glucose, especially by the liver, from noncarbohydrate precursors, such as amino acids, lactate, pyruvate, and the glycerol portion of fats. [e]
- Porphyrin [r]: Class of cyclic compounds in which the parent macrocycle consists of four pyrrole-type units interconnected at their α carbon atoms via a methine bridge, and functioning as a metal-binding cofactor in haemoglobin, chlorophyll, and certain enzymes. [e]
- HMG-CoA reductase pathway [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Secondary metabolism [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Photosynthesis [r]: The process by which an organism captures and stores energy from sunlight, energy it uses to power its cellular activities. [e]
- Calvin cycle [r]: A metabolic cycle, discovered by Melvin Calvin, that is responsible for the reduction of carbon dioxide to sugar in the stroma of chloroplasts. [e]
- Carbon fixation [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Glyoxylate cycle [r]: Metabolic pathway in some orgnaisms which uses acetyl CoAs to synthesize carbohydrates. [e]
