The creatine transporter. The creatine transporter (green) shuttles creatine from the extracellular space into the cytoplasm of the cell and is comprised of 12 transmembrane domains. Creatine kinase catalyzes a reversible reaction between creatine and phosphocreatine, resulting in the generation of ATP. NH2 = amine terminus, COOH = carboxy terminus.
