Two important features that make all enzymes catalysts are their ability to bind to a substrate. A substrate is anything that needs to be changed into something else. The second important feature is that it works to lower the activation energy without being used or changed in the reaction (Hudon-Miller‚ 2012. The breakdown of

    ATP and its Role in Living Organisms An exemplary biology essay ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is vital to living organisms. It acts as a short-term store of energy in a cell‚ carrying it from where it is synthesised (e.g. the mitochondria) to where it is needed for biological processes. It is well suited to this job for the following reasons: it is small and soluble (and so can be easily transported around a cell); it is easily broken down to release energy; it can transfer energy to other molecules;
