  2. ADP (company) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADP_(company)

    In 1961, the company changed its name to Automatic Data Processing, Inc. (ADP), and began using punched card machines, check printing machines, and mainframe computers. ADP went public in 1961 with 300 clients, 125 employees, and revenues of approximately US$400,000. [3] The company established a subsidiary in the United Kingdom in 1965.

  3. Adenosine diphosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine_diphosphate

    Adenosine diphosphate (ADP), also known as adenosine pyrophosphate (APP), is an important organic compound in metabolism and is essential to the flow of energy in living cells. ADP consists of three important structural components: a sugar backbone attached to adenine and two phosphate groups bonded to the 5 carbon atom of ribose .

  4. 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 ...

  5. ATP hydrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATP_hydrolysis

    ATP hydrolysis is the catabolic reaction process by which chemical energy that has been stored in the high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is released after splitting these bonds, for example in muscles, by producing work in the form of mechanical energy. The product is adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and an inorganic ...

  6. Adenosine diphosphate receptor inhibitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine_diphosphate...

    Adenosine diphosphate ( ADP) receptor inhibitors are a drug class of antiplatelet agents, used in the treatment of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) or in preventive treatment for patients who are in risk of thromboembolism, myocardial infarction or a stroke. These drugs antagonize the P2Y 12 platelet receptors and therefore prevent the binding of ...

  7. Substrate-level phosphorylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substrate-level_phosphory...

    Substrate-level phosphorylation exemplified with the conversion of ADP to ATP. Substrate-level phosphorylation is a metabolism reaction that results in the production of ATP or GTP supported by the energy released from another high-energy bond that leads to phosphorylation of ADP or GDP to ATP or GTP (note that the reaction catalyzed by creatine kinase is not considered as "substrate-level ...

  8. P2Y12 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P2Y12

    View/Edit Mouse. P2Y12 is a chemoreceptor for adenosine diphosphate (ADP) [5] [6] that belongs to the G i class of a group of G protein-coupled (GPCR) purinergic receptors. [7] This P2Y receptor family has several receptor subtypes with different pharmacological selectivity, which overlaps in some cases, for various adenosine and uridine ...

  9. ADP-specific glucokinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADP-specific_glucokinase

    ADP-specific glucokinase. In enzymology, an ADP-specific glucokinase ( EC 2.7.1.147) also known as ADP-dependent glucokinase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are ADP and D-glucose, whereas its two products are AMP and D-glucose 6-phosphate . This enzyme belongs to the family of ...
