The energy charge depends on the relative amounts of ATP, ADP, and AMP, respectively and thus plays a role in metabolic regulation. The energy charge is buffered and it ranges between 0.8-0.95 for most of the cells.
A high-energy charge (0.95) inhibits ATP-generating (catabolic) pathways, whereas it stimulates ATP-utilizing (anabolic) pathways. Similarly a low energy charge (0.8) stimulates ATP-generating (catabolic) pathways, whereas it inhibits ATP-utilizing (anabolic) pathways.
Thus, if energy charge is 0.8 catabolic pathway is stimulated Anabolism <catabolism, and
If energy charge is 0.95 anabolic pathway is stimulated Anabolism> catabolism.
