Background: Creatine Kinase BB

Creatine kinase (CK) catalyzes the conversion of creatine to phosphocreatine (PCr) by consuming adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and generating adenosine diphosphate (ADP). CK reaction is reversible and thus ATP can be generated from PCr and ADP (1). In tissues and cells that consume ATP rapidly, especially skeletal muscle, but also brain, photoreceptor cells of the retina, hair cells of the inner ear, spermatozoa and smooth muscle, PCr serves as an energy reservoir for the rapid buffering and regeneration of ATP in situ, as well as for intracellular energy transport by the PCr shuttle or circuit (2). Clinically, creatine kinase is assayed in blood tests as a marker of myocardial infarction (heart attack), rhabdomyolysis (severe muscle breakdown), muscular dystrophy, autoimmune myositides and acute renal failure. Creatine kinase B (CKB), can form homodimer (BB type), and heterodimer (MB type) with creatine kinase M (CKM). MB type is found in myocardium, and homodimer BB type is found in many tissues, especially brain. The recombinant human CKB is in the BB type and its activity is measured using a phosphatase-coupled method (4).
