anabolic reaction

The purpose of the catabolic reactions is to provide the energy and components needed by anabolic reactions.

Endergonic is an anabolic reaction that consumes energy.

Although these anabolic reactions occur throughout the body, most SAM is produced and consumed in the liver.

Endergonic reactions require energy and include anabolic reactions and the contraction of muscle.

In this course we limit our study of metabolism to the catabolism of carbohydrates and to the anabolic reactions of photosynthesis.

Catabolic reactions generate ATP and anabolic reactions consume it.

The high glucose, fat and aminoacid levels in blood prove useful for anabolic reactions, restoration of homeostasis and regeneration of cells.

NADPH is a carrier of electrons that is used by the cell as a reducing agent in many anabolic reactions.

Although it is important in catabolism, NADH is also used in anabolic reactions, such as gluconeogenesis.

Thermosynthesis is a theoretical mechanism proposed by Anthonie Muller for biological use of the free energy in a temperature gradient to drive energetically uphill anabolic reactions.

The primary phosphate group on the ATP molecule that is hydrolyzed when energy is needed to drive anabolic reactions is the γ-phosphate group.

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is the intermediate molecule that drives the exergonic transfer of energy to switch to endergonic anabolic reactions used in muscle contraction.

The NAD+/NADH form is more important in catabolic reactions, while NADP+/NADPH is used in anabolic reactions.

As NADH is still needed for anabolic reactions, these bacteria use a nitrite oxidoreductase to produce enough proton-motive force to run part of the electron transport chain in reverse, generating NADH.

It was calculated that less than 5% of the energy generated by the retina was used for "vegetative metabolism" (i.e., for the anabolic reactions essential for viability), so that even in the resting state, the great majority of the energy usage appeared to be for function-related processes.
