Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

A molecule which acts as a universal energy currency for living cells.

2
New cards

ATP structure

A molecular configuration consisting of the nucleoside adenosine and a tail of 33 phosphate groups.

3
New cards

ATP synthesis

The process by which energy is safely stored as chemical energy in the high energy phosphate bonds via reactions or by ATP synthase.

4
New cards

Phosphate group charges

The negative charges in the phosphate groups that repel each other and require high amounts of energy to bond them together.

5
New cards

ATP hydrolysis

The process by which energy is released when high-energy phosphate bonds are broken.
