Effects of ionic strength and sulfhydryl reagents on the binding of creatine phosphokinase to heart mitochondrial inner membranes. 1985

W C Wenger, and M P Murphy, and G P Brierley, and R A Altschuld

The concept that creatine phosphokinase is bound to the outer surface of the heart mitochondrial inner membrane originated from observations that the enzyme is retained by water-swollen heart mitochondria and by digitonin-treated heart mitochondria suspended in isotonic sucrose. The present study establishes that digitonin-treated mitochondria release creatine phosphokinase in isotonic KCl, and other investigators have reported an identical response for the water-swollen organelles. These observations suggest that mitochondrial creatine phosphokinase is not bound to the outer surface of the inner membrane at a site adjacent to the adenine nucleotide translocase under physiologic conditions.

D003402 Creatine Kinase 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: the MM type from SKELETAL MUSCLE, the MB type from myocardial tissue and the BB type from nervous tissue as well as a mitochondrial isoenzyme. Macro-creatine kinase refers to creatine kinase complexed with other serum proteins.
