Phosphate group


phosphate groups — not water — break the 1 -> 4 linkages
the phosphate group must then be removed so that glucose can leave the cell.
The liver and skeletal muscle are major depots of glycogen.

When the phosphate group detaches from the pump, the pump returns to its original shape. The two potassium ions leave and three sodium ions enter. The cycle then repeats itself.

The 5'-terminal phosphate group.
The acceptor stem (also called the amino acid stem) is a 7-bp stem that incudes the 5'-terminal nucleotide and the 3'-terminal nucleotide with the 3'-terminal OH group (which is used to attach the amino acid).

Kinase: A kinase is in general an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to something else. In molecular biology, it has acquired the more specific verbal usage for the transfer onto DNA of a radiolabeled phosphate group.

The two gold spheres near the top of the molecule are phosphate groups. The green and blue chains are alpha chains, and the gold and aqua chains are beta chains.

And so the addition of this chemical group, this phosphate group, to the protein actually makes a negative charge, and that can affect the structure, and also actually regulate the activity or function of that protein.

Phosphodiester bond. A bond in which a phosphate group joins adjacent carbons through ester linkages. A condensation reaction between adjacent nucleotides results in a phosphodiester bond between 3' and 5' carbons in DNA and RNA.
