polyketide biosynthetic process

Term ID

GO:0030639

Synonyms

polyketide anabolism
polyketide biosynthesis
polyketide formation
polyketide synthesis

Definition

The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of polyketides, any of a diverse group of natural products synthesized via linear poly-beta-ketones, which are themselves formed by repetitive head-to-tail addition of acetyl (or substituted acetyl) units indirectly derived from acetate (or a substituted acetate) by a mechanism similar to that for fatty acid biosynthesis but without the intermediate reductive steps. 0198506732
