AMP (adenosine monophosphate)

a molecule consisting of an ADENOSINE unit on to which is attached a phosphate group with a low-level energy bond (see Fig. 32 ). The molecule is important because it functions as the basic structure for ADP and ATP, both of which contain HIGH-ENERGY BONDS (34 kJ/mole) that serve as a short-term energy store for the cell. See ATP (Fig. 55) for molecular structure.

Patient discussion about AMP

Q. Differentiate Wheezing & Asthma My sister who is 29 years old is suffering from wheezing for the past 7 years. Its not a genetic problem. Some times she uses inhaler for temporary recovery. She tried English medicine, homeo and other treatments. Is it an Asthma? I find very difficult in seeing her struggle when she find hard to breathe. Please help to make her free out of this struggle.

A. i see what scares you...it's frustrating to see your loved ones suffer and you cannot help. if she is has an inhaler- that mean she has been to the Dr. and he prescribed her some kind of medicine. without giving a diagnose first...?

Q. Should FloMax & Avodart be taken together? Been on Avodart for 5 Mos.FloMax 3yrs.

A. Does one need to have a prescription to buy Flomax and Avodart or are they OTC?

Q. What is the connection between alcoholism & male fertility? If a guy drank heavily for many years, then stayed sober for many years, would his ability to impregnate a woman disappear, or be at all diminished, as a result of his years as a hard-core alcoholic? In other words, would he not have to worry about using any birth control because in his situation it was rendered unnecessary due to the negative effects of long-term drinking? And would such bad effects, if indeed they had kicked in, have been canceled out by a long period of sobriety after the drinking years?

A. i"ve been sober for six years now,drank heavily for 12 years,i now have three kids,so in other words wrap that rascal,lol
