phosphorylate

Phosphorylation is the addition of a phosphate (PO4) group to a protein or other organic molecule. The addition of phosphate groups in proteins changes the way they wiggle and so changes what a protein does.

In a cellular signaling pathways, a protein A phosphorylates protein B, and B phosphorylates C.

Oxidative Phosphorylation

Noun, a seemingly intricate demise of the krebs cycle that is a complete mystery to the human race yet also at the same time largely comical in the usage of vocabulary terms unknown to yourself or others.

I did not know the answer to my algebra test so I simply put Oxidative Phosphorylation....genius.
