Anabolism
Metabolic pathways to build molecules
Anabolism
Anabolism ( ə-NAB-ə-liz-əm) is the set of metabolic pathways that construct macromolecules like DNA or RNA from smaller units. These reactions require energy, known also as an endergonic process. Anabolism is the building-up aspect of metabolism, whereas catabolism is the breaking-down aspect. Metabolism is rather synonymous with biosynthesis.
