| Material Notes | a metallic element that has the atomic symbol mg, atomic number 12, and atomic weight 24.31. it is important for the activity of many enzymes, especially those involved in oxidative phosphorylation. Magnesium is the chemical element with the symbol Mg, atomic number 12 and common oxidation number +2. Its ions (Mg++) are essential to all living cells, where they play a major role in manipulating important biological polyphosphate compounds like ATP, DNA, and RNA. Hundreds of enzymes thus require magnesium ions to function. [Wikipedia] |
