Meyerhof, O. (English spelling) MeyerhofO

…It was discovered in the 1920s by muscle biochemists O. Meyerhof and K. Lohmann in the muscles of crustaceans, and has since been found in the muscles of many invertebrates. As a high-energy phosphate ester, it plays a role in storing and transporting energy in the body, similar to creatine phosphate in vertebrates. …

From [High Energy Bonds]

…The energy stored in the form of ATP's high-energy bonds is used to synthesize various high-energy compounds and, in turn, drives many biosynthetic reactions, but is also converted into physical energy such as mechanical work (motion) and osmotic work (active transport). The concept of high-energy bonds was proposed by K. Lohmann and O. Meyerhof (1934), but the credit for clearly defining its biological significance goes to F. Lipmann (1941). ATP [Masao Kawakita]. …

…筋肉生化学の大家マイヤーホーフO.MeyerhofとローマンK.Lohmannによって1920年代に甲殻類の筋肉から発見され,その後多くの無脊椎動物の筋肉中に見いだされている物質。脊椎動物におけるクレアチンリン酸と同様に高エネルギーリン酸エステルとして,生体内でエネルギーの貯蔵と運搬の役割を担っている。…

【高エネルギー結合】より

…こうしてATPの高エネルギー結合の形でいったん貯蔵されたエネルギーは,種々の高エネルギー化合物の合成に利用され,さらに転じて多くの生合成反応を駆動するが,また一方機械的仕事(運動)や浸透圧的仕事(能動輸送)などの物理的エネルギーにも転換される。高エネルギー結合の概念の提唱者はローマンK.LohmannとマイヤーホーフO.Meyerhof(1934)であるが,その生物学的意義を明確に定式化した功績はリップマンF.A.Lipmann(1941)に帰せられる。ATP【川喜田 正夫】。…
