Biological Chemistry I
Dephosphorylation is the process of removing a phosphate group from a molecule, often a protein or nucleotide, which can alter the function or activity of that molecule. This process is crucial in various metabolic pathways, especially in regulating nucleotide metabolism and the salvage pathways, influencing cellular signaling and energy balance.
