ATP:guanido phosphotransferase family

In molecular biology, the ATP:guanido phosphotransferase family is a family of structurally and functionally related enzymes,[1][2] that reversibly catalyse the transfer of phosphate between ATP and various phosphogens. The enzymes belonging to this family include:

ATP:guanido phosphotransferase catalytic domain
structure of arginine kinase c271a mutant
Identifiers
SymbolATP-gua_Ptrans
PfamPF00217
Pfam clanCL0286
InterProIPR022414
PROSITEPDOC00103
SCOP21crk / SCOPe / SUPFAM
ATP:guanido phosphotransferase N-terminal domain
transition state structure of an arginine kinase mutant
Identifiers
SymbolATP-gua_PtransN
PfamPF02807
InterProIPR022413
PROSITEPDOC00103
SCOP21crk / SCOPe / SUPFAM

Creatine kinase plays an important role in energy metabolism of vertebrates. There are at least four different, but very closely related, forms of CK. Two isozymes, M (muscle) and B (brain), are cytosolic, while the other two are mitochondrial. In sea urchins there is a flagellar isozyme, which consists of the triplication of a CK-domain. A cysteine residue is implicated in the catalytic activity of these enzymes and the region around this active site residue is highly conserved.

ATP:guanido phosphotransferases contain a C-terminal catalytic domain which consists of a duplication where the common core consists of two beta-alpha-beta2-alpha repeats.[5] The substrate binding site is located in the cleft between N and C-terminal domains, but most of the catalytic residues are found in the larger C-terminal domain.[5] They also contain an N-terminal domain which has an all-alpha fold consisting of an irregular array of 6 short helices.[5]
