Phosphorylation Process Atp  Atp High Energy Makes Stable

The phosphorylation of ATP makes it less stable, facilitating its hydrolysis to ADP and inorganic phosphate (Pi) and releasing energy stored in the terminal phosphate bond.

The phosphorylation of ATP makes it less stable, facilitating its hydrolysis to ADP and inorganic phosphate (Pi) and releasing energy stored in the terminal phosphate bond.

Front process of phosphorylation of ATP 
Back ATP is high energy, phosphorylation makes it less stable, readily hydrolysed to ADP + Pi releasing energy stored in the terminal phosphate bond
