Moiety conservation

Moiety conservation

Moiety conservation is the conservation of a subgroup in a chemical species, which is cyclically transferred from one molecule to another.

Example

ADP is a subgroup that remains unchanged when it is phosphorylated to create ATP and then unphosphorylated back to ADP.
