Arginine kinase has been purified from body‐wall muscle of a marine polychaetous annelid,Sabella pavonina.The preparation is homogeneous to analytical ultracentrifugation and disc electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gel. The enzyme is labile and undergoes a rapid decrease of its specific activity, even in the presence of protecting agents. The molecular weight of the native enzyme is 150 000 ± 5000, the sedimentation coefficients°20,bbeing found to be equal to 7.5.Unlike the enzyme from lobster muscle (mol. wt ≃ 43000) and that fromSipunculus nudusmuscle (mol. wt ≃ 83000), the phosphokinase fromSabella pavoninamuscle is not strictly specific towardsl‐arginine. The enzyme shows no optical isomer specificity and is slightly active on a number of analogues ofl‐arginine, the integrity of the guanidine and carboxylic groups of which is indispensable to their activity. The enzyme is strictly specific for the nucleotidic substrate ATP.Partial isotopic exchange and kinetic studies suggest that the reaction mechanism is somewhat different from that described for sea‐water crustacean muscle arginine kinase and more similar to that reported for other phosphagen phosphokinases.
