A biochemical process that involves the addition of phosphate to an organic compound. Examples include the addition of phosphate to glucose to produce glucose monophosphate and the addition of phosphate to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to form adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Phosphorylation is carried out through the action of enzymes known as phosphot [..]

A process in which a phosphate group is added to a molecule, such as a sugar or a protein.

Addition of a phosphate group or groups to a molecule.

A chemical reaction in which a phosphate group is covanently bonded to another molecule.

Process where a phosphate

the "recharging" of ATP, the universal energy of biological activity.

The enzymatic addition of a phosphate group to a protein.

the addition of at least one phosphate group.

The formation of a phosphate derivative of a biomolecule.

Attachment of a phosphate group

The process of a phosphate group being added to a molecule.

Illustrated Glossary of Organic Chemistry Phosphorylation: The process of adding a phosphate group to a molecule. In the first step of glycolysis, the carbon-6 hydroxyl group of glucose is converted f [..]

the creation of a phosphate derivative of an organic molecule. This is usually achieved by transferring a phosphate group (-PO4) from ATP to another molecule.

The introduction of a phosphoryl group into a compound through the formation of an ester bond between the compound and a Phosphorus moiety.

Electron Transfer through the Cytochrome system liberating free energy which is transformed into high-energy phosphate bonds.

The use of Light to convert ADP to ATP without the concomitant reduction of Dioxygen to Water as occurs during Oxidative Phosphorylation in Mitochondria.

The introduction of a phosphoryl group into a compound through the formation of an ester bond between the compound and a phosphorus moiety.

 A process that modifies the properties of neurons by acting on an ion channel, neurotransmitter receptor or other regulatory molecule. During phosphorylation, a phosphate molecule is placed on anothe [..]

A process in which a phosphate group is added to a molecule, such as a sugar or a protein.

The process of adding phosphate groups to a compound.

The creation of a phosphate derivative of an organic molecule. This is usually achieved by transferring a phosphate group from ATP via the action of a kinase.

The addition of phosphate to an organic compound through the action of a phosphorylase or kinase.

The addition of phosphate to an organic compound, such as the addition of phosphate to ADP to form ATP (the function of complex V in the electron transport chain) or the addition of phosphate to glucose to produce glucose monophosphate, through the action of enzymes known as phosphotransferases or kinases.

The process of adding a phosphate group to a molecule. This often activates the molecule by altering its shape or charge and allows it to participate in a chemical reaction.
