(1) Phosphocreatine has long been considered to be a reservoir of so-called high-energy phosphate in muscle, heart, and brain (1, 2), supplying ATP, the primary energy source in bioenergetics, upon demand. Recent noninvasive 31 P NMR studies on intact muscle and heart have elegantly verified this classically proposed role of the creatine kinase reaction in using phosphocreatine as such an energy reservoir in these organs (3-8). The enzyme has, however, been shown to occur in many other tissues, and it is now thought to be involved in supplying energy in vertebrates wherever high levels of ATP are required for ATPase-dependent reactions. For example, creatine kinase is thought to be involved in ion transport across membranes such as those of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and cell surfaces (9-13) and to be involved in phagocytosis in mouse peritoneal macrophages (14). Creatine kinase has also been implicated in the control of glycolysis (15), in mitochondrial respiration in relation to the energy needs of muscle contraction (16-21), in the ATP-dependent release of neurotransmitter substances in brain synaptosomal membranes (22), and in a novel and solely structural role in maintaining myofilaments in register at the M-line of muscle (23-25). Other workers (26-30) have reported evidence in support of a direct association of creatine kinase with myosin heads, suggestive of a highly intimate role for creatine kinase in the muscle contractile process. Finally, Eckert et al.(31) have used specific antibodies to find evidence. for association of creatine kinase to the cytoskeleton of cultured mammalian cells, and Koons et al.(32) have used immunofluorescence methods to localize creatine kinase in the mitotic spindle of nonmuscle cells, suggesting involvement of creatine kinase in energy supply for mitosis. Silver et al.(33) have also demonstrated creatine kinase activity in isolated spindle preparations.
