Activation of G protein, binding of GTP, activation of adenylate cyclase, conversion of ATP to cAMP


When ATP synthase in activated it adds a phosphate group to what molecule?

ATP synthase catalyzes the addition of a phosphate group to an ADP molecule. ADP + ATP synthase + P --> ATP + ATP synthase (ATP synthase on both sides of the equation indicates that, as an enzyme, it is not used up in the reaction.)


Which enzymes are involved in the phosphagen system?

Myosin Adenosine TriPhosphotase- This is the initial enzyme that catalyzes with ATP to form ADP and Inorganic Phosphate; thus releasing energy. Creatine Kinase-comes into play after ADP is formed; catalyzes with it ( the ADP) and creatine phosphate ( which supplies a phosphate group) to reform ATP.


What enzyme breaks down ATP?

One of the enzyme is Na+/K+ - ATPase, which cleaves the phosphate group from ATP to get energy for the active transport of sodium and potassium ions across the plasma membrane.


What is an aldolase?

An aldolase is an enzyme, present in some tissues, which catalyzes the conversion of phosphates of fructose to those of glyceraldehyde and dihydroxyacetone.


What is the difference between ATP synthesis and ATP synthase?

synthases do not use energy from NTP's, sythetases do! synthase can be used with any enzyme that catalyzes synthesis (whether or not it uses nucleoside triphosphates), whereas synthetase is to be used synonymously with 'ligase'.


How does your body generate atp?

ATP (energy) is generated in your cells through cellular metabolism. Specifically the conversion of Glucose into ATP.
