Creatine Kinase
Creatine Phosphokinase | ADP Phosphocreatine Phosphotransferase | ATP Creatine Phosphotransferase | Creatine Phosphotransferase, ATP | Kinase, Creatine | Phosphocreatine Phosphotransferase, ADP | Phosphokinase, Creatine
A transferase that catalyzes formation of phosphocreatine from ATP + creatine. The reaction stores ATP energy as phosphocreatine. Three cytoplasmic isoenzymes have been identified in human tissues: MM from skeletal muscle, MB from myocardial tissue and BB from nervous tissue as well as a mitochondrial isoenzyme. Macro-creatine kinase refers to creatine kinase complexed with other serum proteins. EC 2.7.3.2. |
