Term ID
GO:0051486
Synonyms
  • isopentenyl diphosphate anabolism, mevalonate pathway, during terpenoid anabolism
  • isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthetic process, mevalonate pathway, during terpenoid biosynthetic process
  • isopentenyl diphosphate formation, mevalonate pathway, during terpenoid biosynthesis
  • isopentenyl diphosphate formation, mevalonate pathway, during terpenoid formation
  • isopentenyl diphosphate synthesis, mevalonate pathway, during terpenoid synthesis
Definition
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of isopentenyl diphosphate by the mevalonate pathway that contributes to terpenoid biosynthesis. This pathway converts acetate, in the form of acetyl-CoA, to isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) through a series of mevalonate intermediates.
