Ontological Term Details

Compound
FDB013380 (Phosphoric acid)
Term
Pyrimidine Metabolism
Definition
cytosine, thymine, and uracil are pyrimidine derivatives. synthesis of the pyrimidines is less complex than that of the purines, since the base is much simpler this pathway depicts a number of processes including pyrimidine nucleotide biosynthesis, pyrimidine degradation and pyrimidine salvage.
