A phosphoryl group is a trivalent >P(=O)− group, consisting of a phosphorus atom (symbol P) and an oxygen atom (symbol O), where the three free valencies are on the phosphorus atom. While commonly depicted as possessing a double bond (P=O) the bonding is in fact non-classical. [ 1 ] Despite that, the meaning of the te...

In biochemistry , phosphorylation is described as the "transfer of a phosphate group" from a donor to an acceptor. [ 1 ] A common phosphorylating agent (phosphate donor) is ATP and a common family of acceptor are alcohols : This equation can be written in several ways that are nearly equivalent that describe the behav...

A phosphorylation cascade is a sequence of signaling pathway events where one enzyme phosphorylates another, causing a chain reaction leading to the phosphorylation of thousands of proteins. This can be seen in signal transduction of hormone messages. A signaling pathway begins at the cell surface where a hormone or pr...

Photo-Induced Cross-Linking of Unmodified Proteins (PICUP) is a protein cross-linking method by visible light irradiation of a photocatalyst in the presence of an electron acceptor and the protein of interest. [ 1 ] Irradiation results in a highly reactive protein radical that forms a covalent bond between the amino ac...

In high-energy astrophysics , a photo-meson is a meson (most often a pion ) produced in the interaction of a photon with a nucleon within an astrophysical object. This interaction is commonly referred to as photo-hadronic process. The decay of charged mesons ultimately results in the production of neutrinos and electro...

In polymer chemistry , photo-oxidation (sometimes: oxidative photodegradation ) is the degradation of a polymer surface due to the combined action of light and oxygen. [ 1 ] It is the most significant factor in the weathering of plastics. [ 2 ] Photo-oxidation causes the polymer chains to break ( chain scission ), resu...

Photo-reactive amino acid analogs are artificial analogs of natural amino acids that can be used for crosslinking of protein complexes. [ 1 ] Photo-reactive amino acid analogs may be incorporated into proteins and peptides in vivo or in vitro . [ 2 ] Photo-reactive amino acid analogs in common use are photoreactive dia...

Photo-reflectance is an optical technique for investigating the material and electronic properties of thin films . Photo-reflectance measures the change in reflectivity of a sample in response to the application of an amplitude modulated light beam. In general, a photo-reflectometer consists of an intensity modulated "...

Photoacids are molecules that become more acidic upon absorption of light. Either the light causes a photodissociation to produce a strong acid , or the light causes photoassociation (such as a ring forming reaction ) that leads to an increased acidity and dissociation of a proton. There are two main types of molecule...
