Therefore, after meals glucose is the primary source of energy for adipose tissue and skeletal muscle. The breakdown of glucose, in addition to contributing to ATP synthesis, generates compounds ...

The study examined the function of skeletal muscle of older adults ... of ATP synthesis by looking at how fast the muscle was able to synthesize ATP after it was depleted by exercise.

Calcium and ATP are cofactors (nonprotein components of enzymes) required for the contraction of muscle cells. ATP supplies the energy, as described above, but what does calcium do? Calcium is ...

ATP is an energy source for tissues and cells around the body, especially skeletal muscle and the brain. CK is concentrated in cells that make up your brain and skeletal and heart muscles.
