In the Field of Clinical Examination, the Measurement of Creatine
J. Clin. Biochem. Nutr., 3, 17-25, 1987 Bacterial Glucokinase as an Enzymic Reagent of Good Stability for Measurement of Creatine Kinase Activity Hitoshi KONDO, * Takanari SHIRAISHI, Masao KAGEYAMA, Kazuhiko NAGATA, and Kosuke TOMITA Research and Development Center, UNITIKA Ltd., Uji 611, Japan (Received January 10, 1987) Summary An enzymic reagent, that has long-term stability even in the liquid state, was successfully employed for the measurement of serum creatine kinase (CK, EC 2.7.3.2) activity. The enzyme used was the thermostable glucokinase (GlcK, EC 2.7.1.2) obtained from the thermo- phile Bacillus stearothermophilus. The reagent was found to be stable in solution for about one month at 6•Ž and for about one week at 30•Ž. This substitution of glucokinase for the hexokinase of the most commonly used hexokinase-glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (HK-G6PDH) method results in a remarkable improvement of the method. The CK activity measured by the GlcK-G6PDH method was linear up to about 2,000 U/ liter at 37•Ž. The GlcK-G6PDH method was found to give a satisfactory precision and reproducibility (coefficient of variation less than 2.17%). Over a wide range of CK activity, an excellent agreement was obtained between the GlcK-G6PDH and the HK-G6PDH methods. Furthermore several coexistents and anticoagulants were found to have little effect on the measured value of CK activity by the GlcK-G6PDH method. Key Words: creatine kinase activity, glucokinase, improved stability of reagent, creatine kinase determination, thermostable enzyme In the field of clinical examination, the measurement of creatine kinase (CK, ATP : creatine phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.3.2) activity in serum is one of the important examinations usually employed for diagnosis of cardiac diseases such as myocardial infarction or muscular diseases such as progressive muscular dystrophy. -
Labeled in Thecourse of Glycolysis, Since Phosphoglycerate Kinase
THE STATE OF MAGNESIUM IN CELLS AS ESTIMATED FROM THE ADENYLATE KINASE EQUILIBRIUM* BY TRWIN A. RoSE THE INSTITUTE FOR CANCER RESEARCH, PHILADELPHIA Communicated by Thomas F. Anderson, August 30, 1968 Magnesium functions in many enzymatic reactions as a cofactor and in com- plex with nucleotides acting as substrates. Numerous examples of a possible regulatory role of Mg can be cited from studies with isolated enzymes,'- and it is known that Mg affects the structural integrity of macromolecules such as trans- fer RNA" and functional elements such as ribosomes.'0 The major problem in translating this information on isolated preparations to the functioning cell is the difficulty in determining the distribution of Mg and the nucleotides among the free and complexed forms that function in the region of the cell for which this information is desired. Nanningall based an attempt to calculate the free Mg2+ and Ca2+ ion concentrations of frog muscle on the total content of these metals and of the principal known ligands (adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP), creatine-P, and myosin) and the dissociation constants of the complexes. However, this method suffers from the necessity of evaluating the contribution of all ligands as well as from the assumption that all the known ligands are contributing their full complexing capacity. During studies concerned with the control of glycolysis in red cells and the control of the phosphoglycerate kinase step in particular, it became important to determine the fractions of the cell's ATP and adenosine 5'-diphosphate (ADP) that were present as Mg complexes. Just as the problem of determining the distribution of protonated and dissociated forms of an acid can be solved from a knowledge of pH and pKa of the acid, so it would be possible to determine the liganded and free forms of all rapidly established Mg complexes from a knowledge of Mg2+ ion concentration and the appropriate dissociation constants. -

Structures, Functions, and Mechanisms of Filament Forming Enzymes: a Renaissance of Enzyme Filamentation
Structures, Functions, and Mechanisms of Filament Forming Enzymes: A Renaissance of Enzyme Filamentation A Review By Chad K. Park & Nancy C. Horton Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology University of Arizona Tucson, AZ 85721 N. C. Horton ([email protected], ORCID: 0000-0003-2710-8284) C. K. Park ([email protected], ORCID: 0000-0003-1089-9091) Keywords: Enzyme, Regulation, DNA binding, Nuclease, Run-On Oligomerization, self-association 1 Abstract Filament formation by non-cytoskeletal enzymes has been known for decades, yet only relatively recently has its wide-spread role in enzyme regulation and biology come to be appreciated. This comprehensive review summarizes what is known for each enzyme confirmed to form filamentous structures in vitro, and for the many that are known only to form large self-assemblies within cells. For some enzymes, studies describing both the in vitro filamentous structures and cellular self-assembly formation are also known and described. Special attention is paid to the detailed structures of each type of enzyme filament, as well as the roles the structures play in enzyme regulation and in biology. Where it is known or hypothesized, the advantages conferred by enzyme filamentation are reviewed. Finally, the similarities, differences, and comparison to the SgrAI system are also highlighted. 2 Contents INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………..4 STRUCTURALLY CHARACTERIZED ENZYME FILAMENTS…….5 Acetyl CoA Carboxylase (ACC)……………………………………………………………………5 Phosphofructokinase (PFK)……………………………………………………………………….6 -

Inter-subunit protein-protein interfaces that stabilize Reptin in its oligomeric state are not well-defined. A self-peptide binding assay identified a protein-peptide interface mapping to an inter-subunit “rim” of the hexamer bridged by Tyrosine-340.
