Biosensing strategies for determination of adenosine-5′-triphosphate

Biosensors and Bioelectronics: X
Adenosine-5′-triphosphate (ATP) is a fundamental biomolecule that supplies the energy required for virtually all biochemical reactions in living organisms and thus underpins the continuity of life.

Mitochondrial transplantation strategies as potential therapeutics for central nervous system trauma

Neural Regeneration Research, 2018
Mitochondria are essential cellular organelles critical for generating adenosine triphosphate for cellular homeostasis, as well as various mechanisms that can lead to both necrosis and apoptosis. The field of “mitochondrial medicine” is emerging in which

Adenosine-triphosphate and microbial biomass in soil

, 1979
Two methods for measuring adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) in soil were compared, one based on extraction with NaHCO3-CHCl3 and thel other on extraction by a trichloracetic acid-phosphate-paraquat reagent.

Post-thyroidectomy hypothyroidism increases the expression and activity of ectonucleotidases in platelets: Possible involvement of reactive oxygen species

Platelets, 2018
Signaling mediated by purines is a widespread mechanism of cell–cell communication related to vasomotor responses and the control of platelet function in the vascular system. However, little is known about the involvement of this signaling as well as the

ENTPDase inhibitors: therapeutic potential in infectious, inflammatory, and neuroinflammatory diseases [PDF]

Exploration of Neuroscience
Ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases (ENTPDases), members of the cluster of differentiation 39 (CD39) family, are key regulators of purinergic signaling through the hydrolysis of tri and diphosphate nucleotides.

Synthesis and evaluation of 2-ethynyl-adenosine-5′-triphosphate as a chemical reporter for protein AMPylation

, 2015
Protein AMPylation is a posttranslational modification (PTM) defined as the transfer of an adenosine monophosphate (AMP) from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to a hydroxyl side-chain of a protein substrate.

New Mixed-Ligand Complexes of Cobalt(II), Nickel(II), and Copper(II) with Adenosine 5′-Triphosphate and Amino Acids [PDF]

, 1998
In the systems metal [Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II)]-adenosine 5′-triphosphate-amino acid (glycine, α-alanine, valine, proline) new mixed-ligand complexes with the adenosine 5′-triphosphate coordinated by deprotonated hydroxy groups of the ribose moiety were ...
