ATP Flashcards
1
Q
What does a single molecule of atp consist of
A
-molecule of ribose,
-a molecule of adenine
- three phosphate groups.
2
Q
What enzyme catalysis hydrolysis of atp
A
-Hydrolysis of ATP to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and an inorganic phosphate group (Pi) is catalysed by the enzyme ATP hydrolase.
3
Q
What enzyme catalysis the condensation of atp
A
-ATP is resynthesised by the condensation of ADP and Pi. This reaction is catalysed by the enzyme ATP synthase during photosynthesis, or during respiration.
