The chemical reactions involving a polyol, any polyhydric alcohol.

The chemical reactions involving glucosamine (2-amino-2-deoxyglucopyranose), an aminodeoxysugar that occurs in combined form in chitin.

The process by which the anatomical structures of the soma are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form.

The chemical reactions involving carboxylic acids, any organic acid containing one or more carboxyl (COOH) groups or anions (COO-).

The formation from simpler components of glucosamine (2-amino-2-deoxyglucopyranose), an aminodeoxysugar that occurs in combined form in chitin.

The process by which the anatomical structures of the embryonic soma are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form.

The breakdown into simpler components of glucosamine (2-amino-2-deoxyglucopyranose), an aminodeoxysugar that occurs in combined form in chitin.

Catalysis of the degradation of double-stranded DNA. It acts progressively in a 3' to 5' direction, releasing 5'-phosphomononucleotides.

Intracellular foci at which aggregated proteins have been sequestered.

The chemical reactions involving N-acetylglucosamine. The D isomer is a common structural unit of glycoproteins in plants, bacteria and animals; it is often the terminal sugar of an oligosaccharide moiety of a glycoprotein.

An inclusion body resulting from dynein-dependent retrograde transport of an aggregated protein on microtubules.

The formation from simpler components of N-acetylglucosamine. The D isomer is a common structural unit of glycoproteins in plants, bacteria and animals; it is often the terminal sugar of an oligosaccharide moiety of a glycoprotein.

The major inducible pathway for the general turnover of cytoplasmic constituents in eukaryotic cells, it is also responsible for the nonselective degradation of active cytoplasmic enzymes and organelles during nutrient starvation.

The breakdown into simpler components of N-acetylglucosamine. The D isomer is a common structural unit of glycoproteins in plants, bacteria and animals; it is often the terminal sugar of an oligosaccharide moiety of a glycoprotein.
