==Overview==
The crystal structure of human muscle creatine kinase has been determined, by the molecular-replacement method and refined at 3.5A resolution. The, structures of both the monomer and the dimer closely resemble those of the, other known structures in the creatine kinase family. Two types of dimers, one with a non-crystallographic twofold symmetry axis and the other with a, crystallographic twofold symmetry axis, were found to exist simultaneously, in the crystal. These dimers form an infinite "double-helix"-like, structure along an unusual long crystallographic 3(1) axis.
