General description

Creatine phosphate is a high-energy phosphate compound that stores energy from mitochondria whenever sufficient amounts of ATP are present. When ATP levels are low, energy from phosphocreatine is transferred to ADP molecules, which are quickly converted to ATP. It is often a component of ATP-generating systems.
