The process of introducing a phosphate group into a molecule, usually with the formation of a phosphoric ester, a phosphoric anhydride or a phosphoric amide. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving phosphates. The process of removing one or more phosphoric (ester or anhydride) residues from a molecule. The chemical reactions and pathways involving diphosphate, the anion or salt of diphosphoric acid. The chemical reactions and pathways involving a polyphosphate, the anion or salt of polyphosphoric acid. The chemical reactions and pathways involving the phosphate group, the anion or salt of any phosphoric acid. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving phosphates. The chemical reactions and pathways involving glycerol-3-phosphate, a phosphoric monoester of glycerol. The chemical reactions and pathways by which individual cells transform chemical substances. The chemical reactions and pathways involving the nonmetallic element phosphorus or compounds that contain phosphorus, usually in the form of a phosphate group (PO4). Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving phosphates.
