Secondary Information |
|---|
| Presence in other biological fluids/tissue/cells | expressed in
cholinergic neurons |
|---|
| Protein Function | termination of impulse transmission at cholinergic synapses by rapid hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine; serine hydrolases; key
role in ending cholinergic neurotransmission |
|---|
| Biochemical Properties | possesses a
high specific activity, functioning at a rate approaching that of a diffusion controlled
reaction; potent irreversible inhibitors- organophosphorus (OP) poisons; active site of AChE contains two subsites, the
‘esteratic’ and ‘anionic’ subsites; type α/β hydrolase folded with an
α helix bound with β sheet that contains a catalytic domain38
with catalytic triad Ser – His – Glu |
