Description: Metropolis, art deco style design, which originated in the period of the Roaring Twenties. Here an abstract design in the art deco category in two colors, black and white. A typical design of the 20s and 30s, in a geometric style and using the broken line technique, like a kind of shadow play. A superb design in a vintage style that will appeal to lovers of all things retro.
Description: Referred to by my biology teacher in high school as a “cellular workhorse” this molecule is constantly being used and reused in the living cell to facilitate energy transfer for a wide range of metabolic processes. Cells break down the ATP to release energy for vital processes and also reform the molecule in order to transfer energy onwards, hence ATP’s nickname as the “energy currency” in cells. The breakdown process involves the removal of the phosphate group on the end (top-left in the diagram) to convert the molecule into ADP (adenosine diphosphate).
