32
Q

Why is phosphorylation activating?

A
  1. thermodynamics: ATP hydrolysis can drive unfavorable reactions
  2. kinetics: physiological processes dictate reaction rate
  3. cell processes: ATP amounts dictated by metabolism (energy charge), signal transduction amplification (catalytic turnover)
  4. shape and charge complementarity: each phosphate adds (-2) charge and (3+) H-bonds
