Abstract excerpt
Determination of the 3D-structure of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) of Torpedo californica over a decade ago, and more recently that of human enzyme together with extensive targeted mutagenesis of the mammalian AChEs led to a fine mapping of the multiple functional domains within the active center of the enzyme. Many of the contributions of this active center architecture to accommodation of noncovalent ligands...
