In an article published in the journal Trends in Biochemical Sciences, Alicia Kowaltowski, full professor at the University ...

Boyer showed that contrary to the previously accepted belief, the energy requiring step in making ATP is not the synthesis from ADP and phosphate, but the initial binding of the ADP and the phosphate ...

the mechanism of ATP synthesis, and why the biological world has adapted this type of very complicated process for the synthesis of ATP. Research is being pursued in three interacting areas to solve ...

The flow of protons through amazing protein turbines embedded in this membrane powers the synthesis of ATP in much the same way that the flow of water through mechanized turbines generates ...

he said. "Was it carbon assimilation or ATP synthesis or both?" Various lines of evidence suggest that the plastids in red algae and another group of photosynthesizing organisms known as ...

A paper by scientists affiliated with the University of São Paulo highlights new discoveries regarding the mechanisms of oxidative phosphorylation involved in ATP production. Recent studies have ...

Using a technique called 31 PMR spectroscopy, SOMMA researchers were able to determine the rate of ATP synthesis by looking at how fast the muscle was able to synthesize ATP after it was depleted ...

The human body uses three types of molecules to yield the necessary energy to drive ATP synthesis: fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Over a hundred ATP molecules are synthesized from the complete ...

In particular, mitochondrial Ca 2+ plays a dual role: enabling physiological functions like metabolism and ATP synthesis while contributing to pathological processes such as apoptosis and ...

The hydrolysis of ATP releases energy that is used to drive various cellular processes, such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse transmission, and the synthesis of complex molecules. GTP is another ...
