Fosforylaatiojännitteiden
Fosforylaatio is a chemical process where a phosphate group is added to a molecule. This process is fundamental to many biological functions, including energy metabolism and signal transduction. In living organisms, phosphorylation is often catalyzed by enzymes called kinases. These enzymes transfer a phosphate group from a high-energy phosphate donor, most commonly adenosine triphosphate (ATP), to a specific substrate molecule.
The addition of a phosphate group can significantly alter the properties of a molecule. It can change
In energy metabolism, phosphorylation is key to capturing and releasing energy. The formation of ATP itself
Another vital area where fosforylaatio plays a role is in signal transduction pathways. When a cell receives
