Abstract
Creatine kinase isoenzymes were localized in the chicken cerebellum by the use of isoenzyme-specific anti-chicken creatine kinase antibodies. Brain-type creatine kinase was found in high amounts in the molecular layer, particularly in Bergmann glial cells but also in other cells of the cerebellar cortex, e.g. in astrocytes and in the glomerular structures, as well as in cells of the deeper nuclei. A mitochondrial creatine kinase isoform was primarily localized to the glomerular structures in the granule cell layer and was also identified in Purkinje neurons. Surprisingly, a small amount of the muscle-type creatine kinase isoform was identified in cerebellar extracts by immunoprecipitation, immunoblotting and native enzyme electrophoresis, and was shown to be localized exclusively in Purkinje neurons. Cell type-specific expression of brain- and muscle-type creatine kinase in Bergmann glial cells and Purkinje neurons, respectively, may serve to adapt cellular ATP regeneration to the different energy requirements in these specialized cell types. The presence of brain-type creatine kinase in Bergmann glial cells and astrocytes is discussed within the context of the energy requirements for ion homeostasis (K+ resorption), as well as for metabolite and neurotransmitter trafficking. In addition, the presence of muscle-type creatine kinase in Purkinje neurons, which also express other muscle-specific proteins, is discussed with respect to the unique calcium metabolism of these neurons and their role in cerebellar motor learning.

Abstract
This report describes the procedures for isolation of creatine kinase BB isoenzyme (CK-BB) from human placenta on preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. 2.5 mg of CK-BB was purified from a 100-g portion of the human placenta, which had a mean specific activity of 957 kU/g and a mean yield of 16%. The placenta CK-BB exhibited single protein bands on several electrophoretic techniques. In addition, both of the placenta and brain CK-BB preparations were individually iodinated and the identical immunological properties of both the CK-BB preparations were confirmed in radioimmunoassay.

Abstract
Skinned rat papillary muscles and purified preparations of rat cardiac myofibrils were used to study the nature of the interaction of creatine kinase with cardiac myofibrils. High activity of creatine kinase (2 IU/mg protein in fibers and 0.9 IU/mg in purified myofibrils) was due mostly to reversibly bound enzyme. This activity could be removed and rebound. The process of creatine kinase rebinding was characterized by apparent Km value of 0.14 mg/ml (approximately equal to 2 X 10(6) M). Rebinding of creatine kinase to cardiac myofibrils restored the phenomenon of functional compartmentation of adenine nucleotides in myofibrillar space and restored the ability of phosphocreatine to decrease the rigor tension in the presence of MgADP. The physiological experiments with quick length changes showed that rebinding of creatine kinase to skinned papillary muscle also restored Ca sensitivity, increased maximal tension development, decreased stiffness, and restored the tension recovery after quick length changes in muscle under condition of inhibition of endogenous creatine kinase by 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene. It is concluded that creatine kinase reversibly bound to cardiac myofibrils is involved in the energy supply for cardiac contraction.

Abstract
Creatine kinase, actin, and nu 1 are three proteins of Mr 43 000 associated with membranes from electric organ highly enriched in nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. High levels of creatine kinase are required to maintain adequate ATP levels, while actin may play a role in maintaining the synaptic cytoskeleton. Previous investigations have prompted the conclusion that postsynaptic specializations at the receptor-enriched membrane domains in electroplax contain the brain form of creatine kinase rather than the form of creatine kinase predominantly found in muscle. We have examined this conclusion by purifying Torpedo brain creatine kinase to virtual homogeneity in order to examine its immunochemical, molecular, and electrophoretic properties. On the basis of immunological cross-reactivity and isozyme analysis, the receptor-associated creatine kinase is identified to be of the muscle type. When the molecular characteristics of Torpedo brain and muscle creatine kinase are compared, the brain enzyme is positioned at a more basic pH during chromatofocusing and on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (pI = 7.5-7.9). Furthermore, electrophoretic mobilities of the brain and muscle forms of creatine kinase differ in sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis: the brain isozyme of creatine kinase has lower apparent molecular weight (Mr 41 000) when compared with the muscle enzyme (Mr 43 000). On the basis of the results of our current investigations, the hypothesis that the brain isozyme of creatine kinase is a component of the postsynaptic specializations of the Torpedo californica electroplax must be abandoned. Recent sequence data have established close homology between Torpedo and mammalian muscle creatine kinases. On the basis of electrophoretic criteria, our results indicate that a lower degree of homology exists between the brain isozymes.

Abstract
This paper describes the purification of human creatine kinase BB with high specific activity (1,122 U/mg). The procedure used resulted in a protein yield of 5.4 mg (21% recovery) from 150 g of brain tissue. Two-dimensional electrophoresis and PAGE studies indicated that purified CK-BB might exist as native isoenzyme along with structural aggregates since the multi-banded appearance was reduced to a single band with sodium dodecyl sulfate treatment but not with 2-mercaptoethanol. Investigators are cautioned not to store brain tissue for prolonged periods of time before isolation of the isoenzyme as this may lead to protein redistribution with additional bands becoming evident on PAGE.

Abstract
Cyclic AMP levels have been measured in cultures derived from 12-day-old chick embryonic muscle. A rise in concentration was found after the onset of myoblast fusion. Cells cultured at a medium Ca2+ concentration of 0.1 microM did not fuse and exhibited only a small rise in cyclic AMP concentration during culture. Addition of 1.4 mM Ca2+ to these cells after 50 h in culture caused rapid, synchronous fusion with a concomitant rise in cyclic AMP levels. Indomethacin, an inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis, did not inhibit fusion, but inhibited the rise in cyclic AMP concentration. Indomethacin-treated cultures exhibited lower creatine kinase levels, though no change in the ratio of the three isoenzymes was observed. Addition of prostaglandins E1 and E2 to indomethacin-treated cultures overcame this inhibition. We propose that prostaglandin synthesis is a consequence of the stimulation of myoblast fusion and that via cyclic AMP it stimulates protein synthesis.

Abstract
The origin of an atypical creatine kinase (CK, ATP:creatine N-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7,3.2) migrating cathodic to the MM position found in the serum of a cancer patient was studied. The electrophoretic mobility of the atypical CK is similar to that of the fast-moving cathodal mitochondrial CK. The relative molecular mass was estimated to be approximately 350000, and was similar to that of the fast-moving cathodal mitochondrial CK. The atypical CK reacted with anti-human mitochondrial CK antibody. It is therefore suggested that the atypical CK is of mitochondrial origin. After incubation in 2 mol/l urea, the enzyme was converted into a new form migrating to the MM position. The conversion was observed in liver mitochondrial CK but not heart mitochondrial CK. The residual CK activity after heating at 56 degrees C for 60 s was 77%, and the apparent Km value for creatine phosphate at 30 degrees C was about 0.27 mmol for the atypical CK. These characteristics were very similar to those of the liver mitochondrial CK, because the data from the enzyme determined at the same time were 75% for residual enzyme activity to heat, and 0.24 mmol for apparent Km value. Therefore liver mitochondria are suggested to be the source of the atypical CK.

Abstract
Three isoenzymes of creatine phosphokinase (CPK) were detected in rat heart myocardium after electrophoretic separation of the enzyme in agarose gel: MM isozyme, MB isozyme and BB isozyme. The ratio of their activities was 60:30:5. Total activity of CPK per unit mass of myocardium was increased concomitant with transformation of its isoenzyme spectrum during the early stage of heart adaptation to the increased loading caused by aortic constriction. By the third day of cardiac hyperfunction, relative BB isozyme activity in the heart had increased to 15%, relative activity of the hybrid MB isozyme was increased to 40%, and relative activity of the main muscle MM isozyme was decreased to 45%. The relative increase in the activity of BB isozyme appears to reflect a preference for accumulation of the most functionally effective, short-lived isoenzymes-which play the key role in adaptation of tissues and systems to long-term loading.

Abstract
Mitochondrial creatine kinases (CKs, ATP:creatine N-phosphotransferases, EC 2.7.3.2) were isolated from normal human heart and liver, and their characteristics were compared. The electrophoretic patterns of the extracted enzymes exhibited two forms both migrating cathodic to CK-MM. The fast-moving cathodal form is the major form and the slow-moving cathodal form is the minor one. Incubation of the heart mitochondrial CK at 37 degrees C in normal human serum for 7 h and of the liver mitochondrial CK at 26 degrees C for 1 h in 2 mol/l urea, converted the fast-moving form into the slow-moving one, and finally into a third form migrating in the MM position. The relative molecular masses were estimated to be approximately 350,000 for the major form, and 80,000 for the minor and the third forms. The electrophoretic mobility and molecular weight of the third form were identical to those of the CK-MM; however, the third form was distinguished from CK-MM by its different antigenicity. Thus, three forms were ultimately recognized as mitochondrial CKs by electrophoretic mobilities and molecular weights. The liver mitochondrial CK reacted with anti-human heart mitochondrial CK antibody, thus these two isoenzymes could not be discriminated by their antigenicities. The liver mitochondrial CK was more stable to heat and had higher apparent affinity for creatine phosphate than the heart mitochondrial CK.

Abstract
Creatine kinase is present in significant concentrations in skeletal muscle and cardiac muscle and to a lesser extent in gastrointestinal tract and brain tissue. The enzyme has been purified from a variety of tissues and an examination of its kinetic and physical properties reveal that the enzyme consists of two subunits and can exist as three isoenzymes containing essential cysteine residues. These properties are important in understanding its stability, the assay conditions, and the techniques used to identify the different isoenzymes. The relationship between the properties and the determination of the enzyme in biological fluids will be a main thrust of the review. Creatine kinase activity in serum rises rapidly in conditions such as acute myocardial infarction and trauma to skeletal muscle. However, the interpretation of such increases is dependent upon a sound knowledge of the factors which influence both the total and isoenzyme activities. The nature of these factors will be discussed in detail.

Abstract
Previous studies on the energy metabolism of rat myocardial cells in culture supported the hypothesis that the creatine-phosphorylcreatine-creatine kinase system is essential for intracellular transport of energy from the mitochondria to the myofibrils and in the regulation of energy production to meet energy utilization. Effective functional compartmentation of ATP could result from the binding of creatine kinase to cellular organelles (e.g., myofibrils and mitochondria) so that the high-energy charge at the myofibrils is maintained by the reverse creatine kinase reaction, whereas phosphorylcreatine is synthesized mainly at the mitochondria in the forward creatine kinase reaction. It was essential to demonstrate the presence of mitochondrial creatine kinase to support the hypothesis. Using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electrophoresis on cellulose acetate strips, the mitochondrial creatine kinase isozyme, as well as MM, MB, and BB isozymes, has now been demonstrated in myocardial cells in culture. Nonmuscle cells in culture also derived from neonatal rat hearts lack the mitochondrial creatine kinase isozyme. Total creatine kinase in myocardial cells is greatly decreased by treatment of the cells with adriamycin, a cardiotoxic chemotherapeutic agent, and the relative amounts of the isozymes are altered. The mitochondrial creatine kinase seems to be reduced less than either the BB or MM isozymes.
