Is Phosphorylation Anabolic or Catabolic?

Substrate level phosphorylation- where a high energy phosphate from an intermediate phosphorylated metabolic molecule gets transferred directly onto ADP in a catabolic pathway converting it to ATP.

Is oxidative phosphorylation anabolic or catabolic?

In contrast to the catabolic reactions just discussed (glycolysis, TCA cycle and electron transport/oxidative phosphorylation) which lead to the oxidative degradation of carbohydrates and fatty acids and energy release, anabolic reactions lead to the synthesis of more complex biomolecules including biopolymers ( ...

Is ATP catabolic or anabolic?

The catabolic reactions transform chemical fuels into cellular energy, which is then used to initiate the energy-requiring anabolic reactions. ATP, a high energy molecule, couples anabolism by the release of free energy.
