Question

Can ATP be used to produce electricity?

Answer 1

ATP

1. ATP stands for Adenosine 5′-triphosphate.
2. It is an energy molecule present in all living organisms, commonly referred to as an energy currency.
3. Act as a coenzyme that works with enzymes.
   For example ATP triphosphates to transfer energy to cells by releasing its phosphate groups.
4. ATP molecule consists of 3 components, Adenine bicyclic system, a furanose, and a triphosphates chain.
5. Yes, one of the research shows that ATP produces electricity.
6. Plant and animals convert absorbed nutrients into the biochemical energy in cells which is ATP.
7. Ion transporter proteins present in the cell membranes hydrolyze ATP and use the energy from the reaction for ion transport across cell membranes.
8. The Bio-Cell is an energy conversion device inspired by ion transport through cell membranes that convert energy from ATP hydrolysis into electrical power.
