Resource summary

ATP
  1. structure
    1. phosporylated molecule
      1. adenine
        1. nitrogen-containing organic base
        2. ribose
          1. pentose sugar (5-C ring structured sugar mol)
            1. backbone
            2. phosphates
              1. chain of 3 phosphate groups
          2. how stores E
            1. ATP = nucleotide with 3 phosphate groups
              1. unstable bonds between
                1. low activation E
                  1. easily broken
                  2. release considerable E amount when broken
                2. hydrolysis of ATP
                  1. ATP + H2O = ADP + Pi + E
                    1. ADP = adenosine diphospate
                      1. Pi = inorganic phosphate
                        1. can phosphorylate other compounds
                          1. often makes them more reactive
                      2. catalysed by enzyme ATP hydrolase
                        1. can be coupled to E-requiring reactions within cells
                          1. E released for use by cells
                          2. synthesis of ATP
                            1. resynthesised by condensation of ADP and Pi
                              1. E supplied by respiration
                              2. catalysed by enzyme ATP synthase during photosynthesis or respiration
