GO Term : GO:0006045 N-acetylglucosamine biosynthetic process GO

Namespace  biological_process Obsolete  false
Description  The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of N-acetylglucosamine. The D isomer is a common structural unit of glycoproteins in plants, bacteria and animals; it is often the terminal sugar of an oligosaccharide group of a glycoprotein.

GO:0009987 cellular process Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level.
GO:0008150 biological_process A biological process is the execution of a genetically-encoded biological module or program. It consists of all the steps required to achieve the specific biological objective of the module. A biological process is accomplished by a particular set of molecular functions carried out by specific gene products (or macromolecular complexes), often in a highly regulated manner and in a particular temporal sequence.
GO:0008152 metabolic process A cellular process consisting of the biochemical pathways by which a living organism transforms chemical substances. This includes including anabolism (biosynthetic process) and catabolism (catabolic process). Metabolic processes includes the transformation of small molecules, as well macromolecular processes such as DNA repair and replication, protein synthesis and degradation.
GO:0009058 biosynthetic process A cellular process consisting of the biochemical pathways by which a living organism synthesizes chemical substances. This typically represents the energy-requiring part of metabolism in which simpler substances are transformed into more complex ones.
GO:1901135 carbohydrate derivative metabolic process The chemical reactions and pathways involving carbohydrate derivative.
GO:1901137 carbohydrate derivative biosynthetic process The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of carbohydrate derivative.
GO:1901071 glucosamine-containing compound metabolic process The chemical reactions and pathways involving glucosamine-containing compounds (glucosamines).
GO:0006040 amino sugar metabolic process The chemical reactions and pathways involving any amino sugar, sugars containing an amino group in place of a hydroxyl group.
GO:1901073 glucosamine-containing compound biosynthetic process The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of glucosamine-containing compounds (glucosamines).
