Toolkit/polyphosphate
polyphosphate
Also known as: polyP
Taxonomy: Mechanism Branch / Architecture. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.
Summary
The supplied review scaffold lists polyphosphate (polyP) among the strongest explicitly supported component names and notes that the anchor review covers intracellular/storage or functional polymers including polyphosphate.
Usefulness & Problems
Why this is useful
Polyphosphate is presented as a bacterial functional polymer included in the review's broad survey of bacterial biopolymers.; functional polymer comparisons; bacterial biopolymer scope coverage
