Kinetic studies on rabbitmuscle myokinase.

Initial velocity and equilibrium kinetics of myokinase.

The mechanism of myokinase (ATP-AMP phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.4.3) from rabbit muscle has been investigated by studies of equilibrium isotope exchange and initial velocities. The mechanism for the myokinase reaction is random bi bi. Under most conditions, equilibrium isotope exchange between AMP and ADP is faster than that between ATP and ADP. The rate-limiting steps in the reaction include th...

A spectrophotometric method for the determination of creatine phosphokinase and myokinase.

where ATP = adenosine triphosphate and ADP= adenosine diphosphate. The substances most commonly determined have been creatine or creatine phosphate; e.g. Banga (1943), Askonas (1951), Narayanaswami (1952), Ennor & Rosenberg (1954), Kuby, Noda & Lardy (1954) and Chappell & Perry (1954). These methods may not always be convenient for the determination of creatine phosphokinase activity in tissue ...

Myokinase activity of coronary arteries.

In exploring the mechanism of action of vasodilating drugs an attempt has been made to study the enzyme systems of the blood vessels. A transphosphatase of the myokinase type has been found to be present in the coronary arteries of the steer. The activity has been studied under the optimal conditions for this enzyme system. Coronary arterial tissue may be maintained at the temperature of dry ic...
