Structure adenosine diphosphate

The structure and formation of ATP. (A) The chemical structure of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). "C" indicates carbon, "N" nitrogen, "O" oxygen, "H" hydrogen and "P" phosphorus. Note the negative charges on the phosphate groups (PO3 ). (B) ATP can be formed from adenosine diphosphate (ADP).

Phosphate ion is a major participant in the biological energy cycle through the reactions of mono-, di-, and triphosphates, including one of the most important of these reactions, producing adenosine diphosphate from adenosine triphosphate (see structures in Section 2.3.1, Table 2.2) ... 

Nucleosides are also encountered in the structures of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and coenzyme A (HSCoA). ATP provides nature with its currency unit for energy. Hydrolysis of ATP to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) liberates energy, which can be coupled to energy-requiring processes in biochemistry, and synthesis of ATP from ADP can be coupled to energy-releasing processes (see Box 7.25). 

The sirtuins (silent information regulator 2-related proteins class III HDACs) form a specific class of histone deacetylases. First, they do not share any sequence or structural homology with the other HDACs. Second, they do not require zinc for activity, but rather use the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD ) as cofactor. The reaction catalyzed by these enzymes is the conversion of histones acetylated at specific lysine residues into deacetylated histones, the other products of the reaction being nicotinamide and the metabolite 2 -0-acetyl-adenosine diphosphate ribose (OAADPR) [51, 52]. As HATs and other HDACs, sirtuins not only use acetylated histones as substrates but can also deacetylate other proteins. Intriguingly, some sirtuins do not display any deacetylase activity but act as ADP-ribosyl transferases. 

The enzymic digestion of an adenosine diphosphate sugar fraction from larch wood leads, among other monosaccharide products, to a fructose.20 This result suggests the occurrence of a corresponding fructosyl ester, but its structure remains undetermined. 

The main component of the adenosine diphosphate sugar fraction from a Salmonella typhimurium strain was unexpectedly found to be adenosine 5 -(D-mannitol 1-pyrophosphate)190 (45). Upon treatment with acid or with snake-venom pyrophosphatase, it produces adenosine 5 -phosphate and D-mannitol 1-phosphate these observations confirm the structure assigned.

Figure 16.1 The structure of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The lower ring is a ribose sugar, the upper molecule is the base, adenine. Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) differs from ATP by having two phosphate groups attached instead of three.

Adenosine triphosphate, ATP, and adenosine diphosphate, ADP, are the high-energy and low-energy forms of a chemical that acts as energy cash in biological systems. The structures of ATP and ADP are shown in Figure 20. The main structural difference between them is that ATP has an extra phosphate group, -PO3. 

Subtypes of adenosine receptors exist - A, Aj and A3 -which have differential sensitivities to adenosine nucleoside analogues, including 2-methylthio-AMP, 2-thioadenosine, DPMA. IB-MECA, NECA, CPA. CCPA and DPCPX. These receptors, and subtypes within A2, have all been cloned. They have structures typical of the seven-transmembrane G-protein-coupled superfamily of receptors, but have amongst the shortest sequences known (A3 has only 318 amino acids), and a lack of sequence similarity with any other receptors appears to put them in a class of their own. Adenosine receptors are not sensitive to nucleotides such as ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which instead act as P2 receptor agonists that are nucleotide-...
