ATP – powering the cell
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy-carrying molecule used in cells because it can release energy very quickly. Energy is released from ATP when the end phosphate is removed. Once ATP has ...

Adenosine Triphosphate - ATP
The enzyme which makes ATP is called ATP synthase, or ATPase, and sits on the mitochondria in animal cells or chloroplasts in plant cells. Walker first determined the amino acid sequence of this ...
In vitro reconstitution of meiotic DNA double-strand breaks: A long-standing challenge solved
