Description générale

Creatinase is a homodimer that catalyzes hydrolysis of creatine. It consists of two monomer subunits and two defined domains; N and C terminal domains. The C-terminal fold has both the α helices and anti-parallel β sheet within two structurally similar domains.In between these two domains, a sulfhydryl group acts as active site, and the activity is metal-independent.

Application

Creatinase mixed with sarcosine oxidase may be used to determine the level of creatine in different pH, temperature, enzyme ratio, and buffer concentration. It may also be used to determine the plasma creatinine level by using a centrifugal analyser.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Creatinase accelerates the conversion reaction of creatine and water molecule to sarcosine and urea. It always acts in homodimer state and is induced by choline chloride.
