Abstract excerpt
In creatine kinases (CKs), the amino acid residue-96 is a strictly conserved arginine. This residue is not directly associated with substrate binding, but it is located close to the binding site of the substrate creatine. On the other hand, the residue-96 is known to be involved in expression in the substrate specificity of various other phosphagen (guanidino) kinases, since each enzyme has a specific residue at...
