Term Information

Accession: GO:0051790
Name: short-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: short chain fatty acid biosynthesis, short chain fatty acid biosynthetic process, short-chain fatty acid anabolism, short-chain fatty acid biosynthesis, short-chain fatty acid formation, short-chain fatty acid synthesis
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a short-chain fatty acid. A short-chain fatty acid has an aliphatic tail containing fewer than 6 carbons. Source: Wikipedia:Fatty_acid_metabolism
Comment: While there is not universal consensus on the lengths of short-, medium-, long- and very-long-chain fatty acids, the GO uses the definitions in ChEBI (see CHEBI:26666, CHEBI:59554, CHEBI:15904 and CHEBI:27283).
