Ap4A
Diadenosine tetraphosphate or Ap4A is a putative alarmone, ubiquitous in nature being common to everything from bacteria to humans. Adenosine polyphosphates are capable of inducing multiple physiological effects.[1] The molecule's role as a second messenger has recently been discovered in The LysRS-Ap4A-MITF signaling pathway.[2]
