Abstract excerpt

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is secreted from muscle and nerve cells and associates as multimers through intermolecular covalent and noncovalent bonds. The amino acid sequence of the C-terminus is thought to play an important role in these interactions. We generated mutants in the C-terminus of th...
