Lesson Summary. ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, is a high-energy molecule that is found floating in the cytoplasm of every cell. It's a three-part molecule that has a phosphate group.
The mitochondrial enzyme ATP synthase plays a crucial role in the process. ATP synthase is a protein complex that is essentially a proton-driven rotary motor that produces ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate (P i). ATP serves as the energy currency of the cell and can be thought of as an available source of chemical energy.
