Cell survival depends on the energy molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP)—it's like the fuel that keeps our brain running.

For the first time, researchers have filmed in real time the disassembly of DNA at the atomic scale. This strand separation ...

Cell survival depends on the energy molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP) - it's like the fuel that keeps our brain running.

Living cells are capable of achieving the remarkable feat described by Schrödinger because they exploit the environment, constantly taking in energy to maintain a high ratio of ATP to ADP ...

Scientists in Basel revealed that energy-producing proteins in mitochondria form large supercomplexes, boosting ATP ...

Mitochondria are the powerhouses in our cells, producing the energy for all vital processes. Using cryo-electron tomography, ...

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 ...

ATP works by losing the endmost phosphate group when instructed to do so by an enzyme. This reaction releases a lot of energy, which the organism can then use to build proteins, contact muscles, etc.

A recent study by Chinese scientists has revealed the intricate molecular machinery driving energy exchange within chloroplasts, shedding light on a key event in the evolution of plant life. Led by ...
