ClearblueÂ® Pregnancy Tests can be used up to 4 days before your expected period1, although the pregnancy hormone levels in your urine may not be high enough to be detected. So if you test early and you get a âNot Pregnantâ test result, we recommend you test again when you your period is due.
ATP-synthase converts ADP into ATP, a process called charging. Shown behind ATP-synthase is the membrane in which the ATP-synthase is mounted. For the ATP that is charged in the mitochondria, ATP-synthase is located in the inner membrane.
ï§ An enzyme called ATPase breaks the bond between the 2 nd and 3 rd phosphate groups when energy is needed. ï ATP ï  ADP + P + energy ï§ When more energy is needed, a similar reaction can occur breaking the bond between the 1 st and 2 nd phosphate groups. ï ADP ï  AMP + P + energy ï§ The breakdown of ATP to ADP/AMP may result in: 1. free phosphate ions + energy. OR 2. the transfer of a phosphate group to another molecule (phosphorylation). The phosphorylated molecule gains both the phosphate group and the energy. â¢ The formation of ATP is the reverse of its breakdown. ADP is phosphorylated to form ATP.
