Developmental changes in the expression of creatine synthesizing enzymes and creatine transporter in a precocial rodent, the spiny mouse

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Creatine synthesis takes place predominately in the kidney and liver via a two-step process involving AGAT (<smcaps>L</smcaps>-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase) and GAMT (guanidinoacetate methyltransferase). Creatine i...
