Adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) is a multifunctional nucleotide that is most important as a "molecular currency" of intracellular energy transfer. In this role ATP transports chemical energy within cells for metabolism. It is produced as an energy source during the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration and consumed by many enzymes and a multitude of cellular processes including biosynthetic reactions, motility and cell division. ATP is also incorporated into nucleic acids by polymerases in the processes of DNA replication and transcription. In signal transduction pathways, ATP is used as a substrate by kinases that phosphorylate proteins and lipids, as well as by adenylate cyclase, which uses ATP to produce the second messenger molecule cyclic AMP.

The structure of this molecule consists of a purine base (adenine) attached to the 1' carbon atom of a pentose (ribose). Three phosphate groups are attached at the 5' carbon atom of the pentose sugar. When ATP is used in DNA synthesis, the ribose sugar is first converted to deoxyribose by ribonucleotide reductase. ATP was discovered in 1929 by Karl Lohmann,[1] and was proposed to be the main energy-transfer molecule in the cell by Fritz Albert Lipmann in 1941.

ATP was the local colony that became Alpha Sigma Alpha. It was founded on April 6, 2007 and its basic tenets were commitments to academics, service, and personal strength. ATP was represented by the colors burgundy, navy blue, and gold.

At Greek Week No-Talent Show 2007, ATP performed a lip-sync of the Moldavian pop song "Dragostea Din Tei," commonly known as "the Numa Numa song."

During the celebration of Old Main's 150th birthday during homecoming in 2007, ATP won the birthday cake contest with a cake set on an edible replica of the Knox grounds.

In March of 2009, ATP passed their faculty vote, and began pursuing affiliation with a national sorority. In November, 2009, ATP chose to nationalize with Alpha Sigma Alpha[1] and participated in Formal Recruitment in the Winter of 2010. They also did a crap ton of informal recruiting.
