terpenoid biosynthetic process, mevalonate-dependent

id: GO:0051485
name: terpenoid biosynthetic process, mevalonate-dependent
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of terpenoids via isopentenyl diphosphate, synthesized by the mevalonate pathway. Isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) is the fundamental unit in terpenoid biosynthesis, and in mevalonate-dependent terpenoid biosynthesis, acetate, in the form of acetyl-CoA, is converted to isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) through a series of mevalonate intermediates.
