Abstract excerpt
The hydrolysis of substrates by cholinesterases does not follow the Michaelis-Menten reaction mechanism. The well-known inhibition by excess substrate is often accompanied by an unexpectedly high activity at low substrate concentrations. It appears that these peculiarities are the consequence of an unusual architecture of the active site, which conducts the substrate molecule over many stages before it is cleaved...
