Arginine kinase catalyzes the reversible transfer of a phosphoryl group between ATP and arginine. It is the arthropod homologue of creatine kinase, buffering cellular ATP levels. Crystal structures of arginine kinase, in substrate-free and substrate-bound forms, have revealed large conformational

Phytomonas are trypanosomatid plant parasites closely related to parasites that cause several human diseases. Little is known about the biology of these organisms including aspects of their metabolism. Arginine kinase (E.C. 2.7.3.3) is a phosphotransferase which catalyzes the interconversion between

Consumption of seafood can produce allergic symptoms in susceptible individuals and crustacean allergies are the most frequently reported causes of allergic reactions. An allergen from the muscle of the white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei was purified by ion exchange chromatography and

Arginine kinases catalyze the reversible transfer of a high-energy phosphoryl group from ATP to l-arginine to form phosphoarginine, which is used as an energy buffer in insects, crustaceans, and some unicellular organisms. It plays an analogous role to that of

Arginine kinase (ATP:l-arginine omega-N-phosphotransferase, EC2.7.3.3.; AK) is an enzyme crucial for the energy metabolism of insects and other invertebrates, that has known allergenic potential in humans and that has been proposed as a pesticidal drug target. Here we report the
