Accession: GO:0009233
Name: menaquinone metabolic process
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: menaquinone metabolism, menatetrenone metabolic process, menatetrenone metabolism, multiprenylmenaquinone metabolic process, multiprenylmenaquinone metabolism, vitamin K2 metabolic process, vitamin K2 metabolism
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The chemical reactions and pathways involving any of the menaquinones, quinone-derived compounds synthesized by intestinal bacteria. Structurally, menaquinones consist of a methylated naphthoquinone ring structure and side chains composed of a variable number of unsaturated isoprenoid residues. Menaquinones have vitamin K activity and are known as vitamin K2. Source: GOC:jl, http://www.dentistry.leeds.ac.uk/biochem/thcme/vitamins.html#k
