Characteristics of the protein coding sequence
Polyphosphate kinase
EN
Polyphosphate kinase catalyzes the reversible transfer of the terminal phosphate of ATP to a long-chain polyphosphate.

Among other functions, the polyphosphate moieties serve as a form of chemical energy storage during a cell's high energy status.
