Annotation
general or unspecified; prefer specific peptide/biosyn;
PROTEIN BIOSYNTHESIS
and
PEPTIDE BIOSYNTHESIS, NUCLEIC ACID-INDEPENDENT
are also available
Scope Note
The production of
PEPTIDES
or
PROTEINS
by the constituents of a living organism. The biosynthesis of proteins on
RIBOSOMES
following an
RNA
template is termed translation (
TRANSLATION, GENETIC
). There are other, non-ribosomal peptide biosynthesis (
PEPTIDE BIOSYNTHESIS, NUCLEIC ACID-INDEPENDENT
) mechanisms carried out by
PEPTIDE SYNTHASES
and
PEPTIDYLTRANSFERASES
. Further modifications of peptide chains yield functional peptide and protein molecules.
