Isoaspartyl Formation in Creatine Kinase B Is Associated with Loss of Enzymatic Activity; Implications for the Linkage of Isoaspartate Accumulation and Neurological Dysfunction in the PIMT Knockout Mouse

Isoaspartate (isoAsp) formation is a common type of spontaneous protein damage that is normally kept in check by the repair enzyme protein-L-isoaspartyl methyltransferase (PIMT). PIMT-KO (knockout) mice exhibit a pronounced neuropathology highlighted by death from an epileptic seizure at 30 to 60 da...
