Abstract excerpt
Arginine kinase (AK) is a key enzyme for cellular energy metabolism, catalyzing the reversible phosphoryl transfer from phosphoarginine to ADP in invertebrates. The amino acid residue C271 is involved in keeping AK's activity and constraining the orientation of the substrate arginine. However, the roles of the C271 interaction amino acid residues in AK's substrate synergism, activity and structural stability are...
