Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) does not contain Cytosine within its molecular structure. However, Cytosine in the form of Cytidine Triphosphate (CTP) may transfer a phosphate group to convert Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) to Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP).

Think about it. DNA, RNA. Deoxyribose. Ribose. Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA), Ribonucleic Acid (RNA). It's in the name. I memorized it by accident in seventh grade. DNA contains Deoxyribose.

DNA has deoxyribose while rna has ribose

that's why DNA is the abbreviated form of deoxyribonucleic acid and rna is the abbreviated form of ribonucleic acid
