MUSCLE PHYSIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Adenylate kinase (EC 2.7. 4.3) (also known as ADK or myokinase) is a phosphotransferase enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of the various adenosine phosphates (ATP, ADP, and AMP).

Detailed explanation-2: -A type of enzyme (a protein that speeds up chemical reactions in the body) that adds chemicals called phosphates to other molecules, such as sugars or proteins. This may cause other molecules in the cell to become either active or inactive. Kinases are a part of many cell processes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Kinases use adenosine-5′-triphosphate (ATP) as the donor substrate and generate adenosine-5′-diphosphate (ADP) as a product.
