Term Name: nucleotide biosynthetic process
Synonyms: nucleotide anabolism, nucleotide biosynthesis, nucleotide formation, nucleotide synthesis
Definition: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of nucleotides, any nucleoside that is esterified with (ortho)phosphate or an oligophosphate at any hydroxyl group on the glycose moiety; may be mono-, di- or triphosphate; this definition includes cyclic-nucleotides (nucleoside cyclic phosphates).
