Question
Chapter 8.3, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To discuss:
The purpose of phosphorylation and whether phosphorylation of a protein is an exergonic or endergonic reaction.
Introduction
The reaction in which energy releases in the surrounding in any form indicates that it is an exergonic reaction. The reaction in which energy is utilized is known as endergonic reactions. For example, the hydrolysis of ATP into ADP is an example of exergonic reactions.

Students have asked these similar questions
Protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation are important regulatory mechanisms. Protein kinases attach phosphoryl groups to target proteins, while only a phosphatase removes the phosphoryl group. What does this method of covalent control cost in terms of energy?
Why can we say that production of a GTP is equivalent toproduction of an ATP?
Write a mechanism (in detail) for phosphorylation of a serine residue by ATP catalyzed by protein kinase. What groups might you expect to find in the enzyme’s active site?
