  2. Adenosine diphosphate ribose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine_diphosphate_ribose

    Adenosine diphosphate ribose (ADPR) is an ester molecule formed into chains by the enzyme poly ADP ribose polymerase. ADPR is created from cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) by the CD38 enzyme using nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD +) as a cofactor. ADPR binds to and activates the TRPM2 ion channel. ADPR is the most potent agonist of the TRPM2 ...

  3. Adenosine monophosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine_monophosphate

    Adenosine monophosphate ( AMP ), also known as 5'-adenylic acid, is a nucleotide. AMP consists of a phosphate group, the sugar ribose, and the nucleobase adenine. It is an ester of phosphoric acid and the nucleoside adenosine. [1] As a substituent it takes the form of the prefix adenylyl-. [2]

  4. ADP ribosylation factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADP_ribosylation_factor

    ADP ribosylation factors ( ARFs) are members of the ARF family of GTP-binding proteins of the Ras superfamily. ARF family proteins are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells, and six highly conserved members of the family have been identified in mammalian cells. Although ARFs are soluble, they generally associate with membranes because of N-terminus ...

  5. ATP synthase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATP_synthase

    ATP synthase is an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of the energy storage molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP) using adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (P i ). ATP synthase is a molecular machine. The overall reaction catalyzed by ATP synthase is: ADP + P i + 2H +out ⇌ ATP + H 2 O + 2H +in.

  6. Air displacement plethysmography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Displacement_Plethysmo...

    Air displacement plethysmography (ADP, also known as whole-body air displacement plethysmography) is a recognized and scientifically validated densitometric method to measure human body composition. ADP is based on the same principles as the gold standard method of hydrostatic weighing , but through a densitometric technique that uses air ...

  7. Adenine nucleotide translocator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenine_nucleotide_trans...

    Adenine nucleotide translocator ( ANT ), also known as the ADP/ATP translocase ( ANT ), ADP/ATP carrier protein ( AAC) or mitochondrial ADP/ATP carrier, exchanges free ATP with free ADP across the inner mitochondrial membrane. [1] [2] ANT is the most abundant protein in the inner mitochondrial membrane and belongs to mitochondrial carrier family.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

    Photosynthesis ( / ˌfoʊtəˈsɪnθəsɪs / FOH-tə-SINTH-ə-sis) [1] is a system of biological processes by which photosynthetic organisms, such as most plants, algae, and cyanobacteria, convert light energy, typically from sunlight, into the chemical energy necessary to fuel their activities.
