Phosphorus chains form the backbone of DNA and its chemical bonds, particularly in a molecule known as adenosinetriphosphate, the principal means by which biological creatures store energy.
The pumps and channels are powered by the same fuel that drives every human cell: adenosinetriphosphate, or ATP.
这些泵结构和通路跟每个人体细胞一样使用了同一种燃料：三磷酸腺苷，或atp。

Phosphorus is a central component of the energy-carrying molecule in all cells (adenosinetriphosphate) and also the phospholipids that form all cell membranes.
