A: Unfortunately, many long-term effects of medications are not known since many medications are not studied for over 6 to 12 months. Adderall (amphetamine/dextroamphetamine) is a medication that has been used for many years in the treatment of ADHD and narcolepsy.
Answer by Nicole Cooper. Confidence votes 32. The role ATP plays in muscle contraction is that ATP binds to sites on myosin heads, inducing a conformational change in the actin binding site and reducing the affinity for the actin substrate. Hydrolysis of ATP then cocks the myosin head and moves it closer to the z disk.
All muscle cells produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules which are used to power the movement of the myosin heads. Muscles have a short-term store of energy in the form of creatine phosphate which is generated from ATP and can regenerate ATP when needed with creatine kinase.
