Function

Function:
Esterase with broad substrate specificity. Contributes to the inactivation of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Can degrade neurotoxic organophosphate esters.
Catalytic Activity:
An acylcholine + H(2)O = choline + a carboxylate.
Kinetics:
BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: Kinetic parameters: KM=18.0 uM for butyrylthiocholine (at 25 degrees Celsius)
Enzyme Regulation:
ENZYME REGULATION: Inhibited by mercury. Inhibited by Tabun. Tabun forms a covalent adduct with Ser-226 that becomes irreversible upon aging.
Active Site:
ACT_SITE 226 226 Acyl-ester intermediate.
