Homogeneous chicken heart mitochondrial creatine kinase purified by dye-ligand and transition-state analog-affinity chromatography.
A method for the preparation of homogeneous mitochondrial creatine kinase from chicken heart is presented. The two-column procedure, which can be completed in 2 days, uses Procion red dye and transition-state analog-affinity chromatography. The transition-state analog-affinity chromatographic system utilizes an ADP-hexane-agarose column in conjunction with the transition-state analog complex originally developed by E. J. Milner-White and D. C. Watts (1971, Biochem, J. 122, 727-740) composed of KNO3, MgCl2, creatine, and ADP. The enzyme is a dimer composed of 2 Mr 43,000 subunits. The sequence of the first N-terminal 20 amino acids shows that the enzyme is different from the cytosolic isozymes but similar to human mitochondrial creatine kinase. The enzyme has an extinction coefficient of epsilon 280 nm = 2.22 +/- 0.10 ml X mg-1 X cm-1 and a maximum velocity of 200 IU/ml at pH 7.0. The kinetic constants for the chicken heart mitochondrial isozyme are comparable to values for the canine and human heart isozyme.
