How Native and Alien Metal Cations Bind ATP: Implications for Lithium as a Therapeutic Agent

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the major energy currency of the cell, exists in solution mostly as ATP-Mg. Recent experiments suggest that Mg(2+) interacts with the highly charged ATP triphosphate group and Li(+) can co-bind with the native Mg(2+) to form ATP-Mg-Li and modulate the neuronal purine re...
