It's an Adenosine Triphosphate molecule I made for a BYU Independent Study biology course.
In reality, the energy is stored and released from between the second and third phosphate molecules (when ATP is expended, it becomes adenosine diphosphate and relies on free phosphates to "recharge" itself back in to ATP), but they wanted me to make the electricity stuff all over it to make it more exciting to look at. I was sad about that but I mean whatever I guess.
Modeled, shaded, animated in Maya.
While I'm at it, I'll post this less-whelming video I made of an oxygen molecule doing its thing:
