e is MgATP2 ATP在能量轉(zhuǎn)運(yùn)中地位和作用 ★ ATP是細(xì)胞內(nèi)的 “ 能量通貨 ” ★ ATP是細(xì)胞內(nèi)磷酸基團(tuán)轉(zhuǎn)移的中間載體 ~ P ~ P ~ P ~ P ATP ~ P 0 2 10 8 6 4 12 14 磷酸基團(tuán)轉(zhuǎn)移能 磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸 3磷酸甘油酸磷酸 磷酸肌酸 (磷酸基團(tuán)儲(chǔ)備物) 6磷酸葡萄糖 3磷酸甘油 ATP provides energy by group transfer (donating a Pi, PPi or AMP to form covalent intermediates), not by simple hydrolysis ? ATP energizes active transport and muscle contraction. ? In the firefly, ATP is used in a set of reactions that convert chemical energy into light energy. ? In the lab, as little as a few pioles (1012 mol) of ATP can be measured using firefly luciferin and luciferase (熒光素酶 ), using spectroscopic methods. In the firefly, ATP is used in a set of reactions that convert chemical energy into light energy ? ATP is not a longterm storage form of free energy in living cells, being consumed within a minute following its formation (phosphocreatine(磷酸肌酸 ) act as a energy storage form for longer term). ? The concentration of ATP remains constant, because the rate of ATP consumption equals its rate of synthesis. ? A resting human consumes about 40 kg of ATP in 24 hours! References ? Alberty, R. A.
