Identification
Name: Triphosphate
Description:A triphosphate is a salt or ester containing three phosphate groups. It is the ionic form of triphosphoric acid, a condensed form of phosphoric acid. Triphosphate is an intermediate in the biosynthesis of Folate, the metabolism of purine, the metabolism of Porphyrin, the metabolism of Pyrimidine and the metabolism of Thiamine. The cleavage of the high energy triphosphate bonds in ATP (to ADP or AMP) is the central route of generating energy in cells.
