This overview explores the mechanisms of protein kinases and phosphatases in cellular processes. Protein kinases catalyze the transfer of phosphate groups from ATP to specific substrates, leading to phosphorylation, a critical regulatory mechanism in various biological functions. Conversely, protein phosphatases remove these phosphate groups, often deactivating or activating pathways and proteins. We delve into the significance of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), inorganic phosphate (Pi), and water (H2O) in these biochemical reactions, highlighting their pivotal roles in cellular signaling.
