  2. Phosphorylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorylation

    Phosphorylation is essential to the processes of both anaerobic and aerobic respiration, which involve the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the "high-energy" exchange medium in the cell. During aerobic respiration, ATP is synthesized in the mitochondrion by addition of a third phosphate group to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) in a ...

  3. Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glyceraldehyde_3-phosphate...

    The energy released by this highly exergonic oxidation reaction drives the endergonic second reaction (ΔG°'=+50 kJ/mol (+12kcal/mol)), in which a molecule of inorganic phosphate is transferred to the GAP intermediate to form a product with high phosphoryl-transfer potential: 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (1,3-BPG).

  4. Phosphoglycerate kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphoglycerate_kinase

    In the glycolytic pathway, 1,3-BPG is the phosphate donor and has a high phosphoryl-transfer potential. The PGK-catalyzed transfer of the phosphate group from 1,3-BPG to ADP to yield ATP can power [clarification needed] the carbon-oxidation reaction of the previous glycolytic step (converting glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate to 3-phosphoglycerate).

  5. Kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinase

    Kinases mediate the transfer of a phosphate moiety from a high energy molecule (such as ATP) to their substrate molecule, as seen in the figure below. Kinases are needed to stabilize this reaction because the phosphoanhydride bond contains a high level of energy. Kinases properly orient their substrate and the phosphoryl group within their ...

  6. Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphoenolpyruvate...

    Phosphoryl groups are transferred during PEPCK action, which is likely facilitated by the eclipsed conformation of the phosphoryl groups when ATP is bound to PEPCK. [ 11 ] Since the eclipsed formation is one that is high in energy, phosphoryl group transfer has a decreased energy of activation , meaning that the groups will transfer more readily.

  7. Protein phosphorylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_phosphorylation

    It was found that an enzyme, named phosphorylase kinase and Mg-ATP were required to phosphorylate glycogen phosphorylase by assisting in the transfer of the γ-phosphoryl group of ATP to a serine residue on phosphorylase b. Protein phosphatase 1 is able to catalyze the dephosphorylation of phosphorylated enzymes by removing the phosphate group.

  8. Phosphoryl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphoryl_group

    [2] [3] "Phosphoryl" groups are covalently bonded by a single bond to an organic molecule, phosphate group(s) or another "phosphoryl" group(s), and those groups are sp 3 hybridized at the phosphorus atom. [4] The term "phosphoryl" in the mentioned branches is usually used in the description of catalytic mechanisms in living organisms.

  9. Phosphoglucomutase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphoglucomutase

    Substrate-velocity relationships and induced transport tests have revealed that the dephosphorylated enzyme then facilitates the transfer of a phosphoryl group from the glucose-1,6-bisphosphate intermediate to the enzyme, regenerating phosphorylated phosphoglucomutase and yielding glucose 6-phosphate (in the forward direction).
