ATP consists of an adenosine base (blue), a ribose sugar (pink) and a phosphate chain. The high-energy phosphate bond in this phosphate chain is the key to ATP's energy storage potential.

The reaction product is adenosine diphosphate (ADP), and the phosphate group either ends up as orthophosphate (HPO 4) or attached to another molecule (e.g. an alcohol). Even more energy can be ...

Cell survival depends on the energy molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP) - it's like the fuel that keeps our brain running.

Adenosine is a short-acting endogenous molecule that is a purine nucleoside. The half-life is 6 seconds. Adenosine receptor activation results in multiple different actions depending on the location.
