This compound allosterically inhibits phosphofructokinase, thus creating a negative feedback loop in a process whose end product is two molecules of pyruvate. A cyclase can act on this molecule to create a second messenger that activates protein kinase A, which in turn dephosphorylates this compound. An enzyme that synthesizes this molecule uses the chemiosmotic flow of protons through it to drive a rotor-shaped subunit in the cristae of the inner mitochondrial membrane. Two molecules of NADH and this energetic molecule are produced by glycolysis. For 10 points, name this molecule, which functions as the energy currency of the cell.
