Term Name: 2-hydroxy-but-3-enyl glucosinolate biosynthetic process
Synonyms: 2-hydroxy-but-3-enyl glucosinolate anabolism, 2-hydroxy-but-3-enyl glucosinolate biosynthesis, 2-hydroxy-but-3-enyl glucosinolate formation, 2-hydroxy-but-3-enyl glucosinolate synthesis, progoitrin biosynthesis, progoitrin biosynthetic process, progoitrin synthesis
Definition: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of progoitrin, a 2-hydroxy-but-3-enyl glucosinolate. Glucosinolates are substituted thioglucosides found in rapeseed products and related cruciferae, and progoitrin has been implicated in causing goiters in mammals and bitter taste in cruciferous vegetables.
