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.
ATP transports chemical energy within cells for metabolism. It is one of the end products of photophosphorylation, cellular respiration, and fermentation and used by enzymes and structural proteins in many cellular processes, including biosynthetic reactions, motility, and cell division.TP is therefore continuously recycled in organisms: the human body, which on average contains only 250 grams (8.8 oz) of ATP, turns over its own body weight equivalent in ATP each day.
