Creatine Phosphate & ADP
Creatine Kinase (CK)/ Creatine Phosphokinase structure
Dimeric enzyme; composed of 2 monomer subunits (M or B) M = Muscle and B = Brain
↓ in absorbance at 340 nm is determined; Oxidized NAD
Forward Reaction (Tanzer-Gilvarg)

Optimum pH is 9.0 (alkaline)
Forward Reaction (Tanzer-Gilvarg) primary enzyme
Creatine Kinase
Forward Reaction (Tanzer-Gilvarg) secondary emzymes
Pyruvate Kinase, LDH
↑ in absorbance at 340 nm is determined; Reduced NADPH
Reverse Reaction (Oliver-Rosalki)
Reverse Reaction (Oliver-Rosalki) Optimum pH
Optimum pH: 6.8 (acidic)
Reverse Reaction (Oliver-Rosalki) primary enzyme
Creatine Kinase
Reverse Reaction (Oliver-Rosalki) secondary enzymes
Hexokinase and G-6-PD
Sources of Error
- Hemolysis cause false ↑ CK activity
- CK is inactivated by light (decreased ↓)
- Physical activity and IM injections cause ↑ CK
