General description
Creatine Kinase (CK) comprises M and B subunit and is a dimeric molecule. It is one among the isoenzymes of CK. The enzyme is majorly present in the myocardium.
Application
Enzyme associated with coronary performance.
The MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (MBCK) can be used as a diagnostic marker for acute myocardial infarction.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Creatine Kinase (CK) catalyzes the formation of creatinine from creatine phosphate. Elevated serum levels of CK-MB are prime indicators of myocardial cellular injury. It is regarded as a “gold standard” for myocardial infarction diagnosis. The levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) or cardiac troponin T also correlate to higher CK-MB) levels. CK-MB levels may also be elevated in chronic renal failure.
Components
Solution in 5 mM sodium succinate, 10 mM sodium chloride, 1 mM EDTA, 5 mM β-mercaptoethanol, 50% glycerol, pH 7.0.
