Application

Creatine amidinohydrolase is a clinically important enzyme used in the determination of creatinine in blood and urine.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Creatinase is a homodimer with subunit molecular weights of approximately 45 kDa. It catalyzes the hydrolysis of creatine, in the presence of H2O, to form urea and sarcosine.

Other Notes

One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of creatine to urea and sarcosine per min at pH 7.5 at 37 °C.

I report on a 3-month-old infant with pulmonary atresia-intact ventricular septum and ventriculocoronary communication (VCC) who underwent percutaneous radiofrequency valvulotomy and valvuloplasty (RFVV). The patient's cardiac troponin-I, creatine kinase (CK), and myocardial fraction of (CK-MB) were elevated before RFVV and

An alginate microcapsule was developed that contains three enzymes (urease, uricase, and creatininase) capable of effectively degrading urea, uric acid, and creatinine, which are elevated to pathologic levels in patients with kidney failure. The capsules were evaluated in vitro and

A matrix made up of chitosan-SiO(2)-multiwall carbon nanotubes (CHIT-SiO(2)-MWCNTs) nanocomposite was fabricated to investigate the immobilization of creatine amidinohydrolase (CAH). CAH enzyme was covalently immobilized with the CHIT-SiO(2)-MWCNTs matrix using glutaraldehyde as a linker. The resulting CAH/CHIT-SiO(2)-MWCNTs biomatrix was characterized

New potentiometric and amperometric biosensors were developed for the determination of creatine. The potentiometric creatine biosensor was prepared by immobilizing urease and creatinase on poly(vinylchloride) (PVC) ammonium membrane electrode containing palmitic acid prepared by using nonactine as an ammonium-ionophore.
