Creatine phosphate inhibition of heart lactate dehydrogenase and muscle pyruvate kinase is due to a contaminant.
Previously reported inhibitions of heart lactate dehydrogenase (Guppy, M., and Hochachka, P.W. (1978) J. Biol. Chem. 253, 8465-8469) and muscle pyruvate kinase (Kemp, R.G. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 3963-3967) by creatine phosphate are due to oxalate which is a contaminant found in some commercial preparations of creatine phosphate.
