Association of tetramers of human butyrylcholinesterase is mediated by conserved aromatic residues of the carboxy terminus.

Chemico-biological interactions - 14 May 1999

Altamirano C V, Lockridge O

Abstract excerpt

Human butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) is composed predominantly of tetramers. Our laboratory has shown that up to 40 carboxy terminal residues of each subunit contribute to the stabilization of tetramers (R.M. Blong, E. Bedows, O. Lockridge, The tetramerization domain of butyrylcholinesterase is at the carboxy-terminus, Biochem. J. 327 (1997) 747-757). To better define the residues which participate in tetramer...
