What do proteins do when energy is released from the ATP?

Answer 1

To access the energy stored in ATP, proteins bind ATP and uncouple the phosphate group. The ADP that is formed is released, and the protein binding site can once again bind ATP.

Answer 2

They are "phosphorylated" and undergo a change in their confirmation, therefor fullfilling there function (aka moving a muscle, catalyzing a reaction).

many proteins have specific binding sites that recognize ATP

Answer 3

Many ways.....as enzymes, which lower the activation energy of a reaction (by stabilizing the transition state) and allowing the reaction to proceed. Also as transmembrane transporters, like ATPase, which couples the flow of hydrogen atoms down its electrochemical gradient to the production of ATP from ADP + Pi

Answer 4

Proteins use the released energy from ATP for various cellular processes such as muscle contraction, active transport of molecules across cell membranes, and chemical reactions that require energy input. This energy is utilized to drive these cellular activities and maintain essential functions within the cell.

Answer 5

Proteins in your cells access the energy stored in ATP by breaking down glucose. ATP will release energy any time the cells need to carry out functions that require energy.

Answer 6

The proteins access energy when ATP is turned into ADP by losing the terminal phosphate and releasing covalent bond energy.
