Abstract: | With electrophoretic evidence for a mitochondrial isoenzyme of creatine phosphokinase (CPK), we feel that functional studies are necessary to help further elucidate the properties of this isoenzyme. As one approach, fluorodinitrobenzene (FDNB) was used to examine its effect on mitochondrial CPK. In both polarographic studies and direct enzymatic studies, 10?5 M FDNB was shown to almost completely inhibit the enzyme activity, as has been shown in skeletal muscle. In addition it was observed that the mitochondrial CPK was just as susceptible to the inhibitory effect of FDNB as the cytoplasmic isoenzyme. |
