| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Creatine kinase (CK) is a guanidino-kinase that catalyzes the reversible phosphorylation of creatine to phosphocreatine at the expense of ATP. It plays crucial roles in rapid regeneration of ATP in cells with high demand for energy. Increased level of CK in human blood indicates diseases of the nervous system and the heart muscle, malignant hypothermia, and certain tumors. Metals such as Mg, Mn and Ca act as cofactors for CK. It also forms a substrate for protein kinase C, an important signaling molecule involved in cell growth. A product of enzymatic reaction of CK, phosphocreatine, is found to prevent HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) replication in macrophages. |
