On This Day in Adenosine Triphosphate is an occasional feature of the Gnomon Chronicles which celebrates adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an organic compound and hydrotrope that provides energy to drive many processes in living cells, such as muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, condensate dissolution, and chemical synthesis. Found in all known forms of life, ATP is often referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer.
