CKBB Human Recombinant produced in Pichia Pastoris is a glycosylated polypeptide chain having an identical amino acid sequence compared to the native enzyme, purified under non-denaturing conditions and reacts with polyclonal antibodies to BB Isoenzyme in ELISA. The CKBB is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Creatine Kinase BB is a cytoplasmic enzyme involved in energy homeostasis. The encoded protein reversibly catalyzes the transfer of phosphate between ATP and various phosphogens such as creatine phosphate. It acts as a homodimer in brain as well as in other tissues, and as a heterodimer with a similar muscle isozyme in heart. The encoded protein is a member of the ATP:guanido phosphotransferase protein family. A pseudogene of this gene has been characterized.
The biological activity measured by the enzymatic activity of Creatine phosphokinase procedure No.45-UV, 1IU-1 µmole creatine phosphate was 854 IU/mg at 37 degrees celsius corresponding to a Specific Activity of 1,171ng/ml.
