Sensing adenosine-triphosphate

Some of the reactions of PO3- parallel enzymatic reactions promoted by adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Pyruvate kinase catalyzes the equilibration of ATP and pyruvate with adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and phosphoenol pyruvate (11,12). In a formal sense, this reaction resembles the preparations of enol phosphate (eqs. 6 and 7). Cytidine triphosphate synthetase catalyzes the reaction of uridine triphosphate with ammonia to yield cytidine triphosphate (13). In a formal sense, this reaction resembles the replacement of the ester carbonyl group of ethyl acetate by the nitrogen of aniline (eq. 8). 

Let me sum up. A lot of magnesium enzymes are involved in energy production processes, and, many times, a phosphate-dominated molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and other cofactors are needed. Magnesium is also involved with enzymes in the metabolism of fatty acids, proteins, and carbohydrates. Magnesium is involved with heart health in the sense that it plays an important part in the interaction of... 

In a similar methodology, methylene blue (MB) has recently been used as electrochemical indicator for the preparation of an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) aptasensor [45]. Au-NPs claimed to make more MB interact with DNA on the sensing interface. The DPV peak current corresponding to the MB oxidation decreased with ATP concentration in the 1 x 10 M to 1 x 10 M range, with a detection limit of 0.1 nM. The sensor showed advantages regarding low-cost, rapidity, simple detection, and reusability. 

The terms nucleoside and nucleotide in the strictest sense refer to N- lycosides and phosphorylated N-glycosides, respectively, derived from nucleic acids. The term is now used, however, in several broader ways. Thus, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is not derived from nucleic acids, but is quite legitimately a nucleotide through its relation to adenosine monophosphate (AMP), which is so derived. Other N-ribosides, such as nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), are called nucleotides only by extension and anal-... 

Phosphate-related anion species, including phosphate (Pi), pyrophosphate (PPi), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), play crucial roles in energy transduction and metabolic processes. ATP hydrolysis is central to many biological reactions. In addition, phosphate anion is one of the basic building components of nucleic acids (DNA aud RNA). As a result, the sensing and discrimination of these phosphate-related anion species have captured the attention of many research groups. 

A further example of optical sensing with water-soluble conjugated polymers was by Li et al, who reported a water-soluble polythiophene derivative that displays colorimetric and fluorescent responses to adenosine triphosphate...
