Organophosphorus (OP) agents are responsible for the inhibition of the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE) which is found in erythrocytes, brain synapses, and neuromuscular junctions. AChE contains a catalytic triad of serine-histidine-glutamate residues located within the enzyme active site…
Organophosphorus (OP) compounds inhibit the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE), a cholinergic enzyme that hydrolyzes acetylcholine into acetic acid and choline…
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes the biologically essential neurotransmitter acetylcholine. AChE can be targeted by organophosphorus (OP) compounds that are commonly found in pesticides…
