Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a nucleotide which is also called as nucleoside triphosphate is a small molecule used in cells as a coenzyme. It is often referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer. ATP transports chemical energy within cells for metabolism. Most of the cellular functions need energy in order to be carried out such as synthesis of proteins, synthesis of membranes, movement of the cell, cellular division, transport of various solutes etc. The ATP is the molecule that carries energy to the place where the energy is needed. When ATP breaks into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and P_i (phosphate), the breakdown of the last covalent link of phosphate liberates energy that is used in reactions where it is needed.

The C.M of Kerala, Pinarayi Vijayan has recently launched e-health program “Jeevan Rekha” to make electronic health records of a population in Thiruvananthapuram.

It is a first-of-its-kind initiative in India to provide a centralised database of healthcare information and efficient service delivery to the people.

The new system would help in creating a good hospital management system and patient-friendly atmosphere in hospitals.

Once data of a patient is centralised, it would help the person get continuous treatment at all hospitals in the state.
