Creatine kinase M-type

Function

Reversibly catalyzes the transfer of phosphate between ATP and various phosphogens (e.g. creatine phosphate). Creatine kinase isoenzymes play a central role in energy transduction in tissues with large, fluctuating energy demands, such as skeletal muscle, heart, brain and spermatozoa.

Sequence Similarities

Belongs to the ATP:guanido phosphotransferase family.

Alternative names

Creatine kinase M-type, Creatine kinase M chain, Creatine phosphokinase M-type, M-CK, CPK-M, CKM
