Guanozintrifoszfát
Guanozintrifoszfát, often abbreviated as GTP, is a naturally occurring nucleotide that plays a crucial role in cellular processes. It is a purine nucleoside triphosphate, meaning it consists of guanine, a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups. GTP is structurally similar to adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary energy currency of the cell, and shares many of its functions.
One of GTP's most significant roles is in energy transfer. Similar to ATP, GTP can hydrolyze its
Beyond its energy-related functions, GTP is a key component in signal transduction pathways. It acts as a
