GO:0019748 | 5 | The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in many of the chemical changes of compounds that are not necessarily required for growth and maintenance of cells, and are often unique to a taxon. In multicellular organisms secondary metabolism is generally carried out in specific cell types, and may be useful for the organism as a whole. In unicellular organisms, secondary metabolism is often used for the production of antibiotics or for the utilization and acquisition of unusual nutrients. |
GO:0042431 | 0 | The chemical reactions and pathways involving indole (2,3-benzopyrrole), the basis of many biologically active substances (e.g. serotonin, tryptophan). |
GO:0042434 | 0 | The chemical reactions and pathways involving compounds derived from indole (2,3-benzopyrrole). |
GO:0052314 | 0 | The chemical reactions and pathways involving phytoalexins, any of a range of substances produced by plants as part of their defense response. |
