Photosynthesis

...nvolved in respiration. Their energy is used for photophosphorylation , which produces adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the main "energy currency" in cells. In photosystem I, the electrons are returned to the chlorophyll. In photosystem II, they are used to drive the reaction NADP + + H + + 2e − → NA...

Light-dependent reaction

...of a phosphate group to ADP , a process called photophosphorylation . ATP is a versatile source of chemical energy use...ifferent pathways, cyclic or non-cyclic. Cyclic photophosphorylation In cyclic electron flow, the electron originates in a pigment complex called photosystem I, passes ...

Phosphorylation

... is synthesized at the expense of solar energy by photophosphorylation in the chloroplasts of plant cells. Phosphorylation of sugars is often the stage of their catabolism . It allows cells to accumulate sugars because the phosphate group prevents the molecules from diffusing back across their transporter....
