For decades, scientists assumed that order drives efficiency. Yet in the bustling machinery of mitochondria—the organelles ...

The process of ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, being converted into energy is fairly complex. However, here’s a quick rundown of how it works: Since ATP is so critical, your body has several systems ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital have characterized a hidden intermediate state at the center of Src kinase function. This hidden state allows the kinase to repeatedly modify its ...

PURPOSE: In a randomized clinical trial in patients with advanced non–small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), infusion with adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) inhibited loss of body weight and quality of life.

In a patient with chronic renal disease and uremia who was under treatment with a low-protein diet, hemodialysis and aluminum hydroxide gel marked hypophosphatemia associated with anorexia, nausea, ...

Cilia were isolated from Tetrahymena pyriformis by an ethanol-calcium method. Addition of adenosine triphosphate to a suspension of intact or digitonin-extracted cilia caused a decrease of about 20 ...

THERE are many occasions in biochemical work in which inorganic phosphorus must be determined in the presence of some acid-labile phosphorus compounds such as glucose-l-phosphate or adenosine ...

ADENOSINE triphosphate is split by recrystallized myosin into adenosine diphosphate and free phosphate ; the adenosine triphosphate used and the diphosphate formed corresponded to Lohmann's formula.

Energy production in nature is the responsibility of chloroplasts and mitochondria and is crucial for fabricating sustainable, synthetic cells in the lab. Mitochondria are not only "the powerhouses of ...
