Cytoplasmic creatine kinases from giant pandas [PDF]
IUBMB Life, 1997 AbstractThe muscle and brain creatine kinases of giant panda have been isolated and purified. The purified muscle and brain enzymes (MM and BB) are homogeneous on both the polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence and absence of SDS. Both enzymes are dimers, consisting of two identical subunits each with a molecular weight of 42,000 daltons ...
