Kinetics for Zinc Ion Induced Sepia Pharaonis Arginine Kinase Inactivation and Aggregation. [PDF]
Protein Pept Lett, 2016 Arginine kinase is an essential enzyme which is closely related to energy metabolism in marine invertebrates. Arginine kinase provides a significant role in quick response to environmental change and stress. In this study, we simulated a tertiary structure of Sepia pharaonis arginine kinase (SPAK) based on the gene sequence and conducted the molecular ...
