Atp Magnesium Salt

Adenosine 5′-triphosphate magnesium salt has been used:

• as a supplement in intracellular medium for Ca²⁺ retention assay and fluorescence wide field imaging analysis
• as a component in potassium methane sulfonate-based internal solution for in vitro electrophysiology of cortical neurons
• as a component in action potential intracellular solution

Adenosine 5γ-triphosphate (ATP) is a central component of energy storage and metabolism in vivo. ATP is use in many cellular processes, respiration, biosynthetic reactions, motility, and cell division. ATP is a substrate of many kinases involved in cell signaling and of adenylate cyclase(s) that produce the second messenger cAMP. ATP provides the metabolic energy to drive metabolic pumps. ATP serves as a coenzyme in a wide array of enzymatic reactions.
