Acetylcholinestarse
is a serine hydrolase enzyme that is found at neuromuscular junctions and
cholinergic brain synapses. Acetylcholinestarse perform its biological role by terminating impulse
transmission at cholinergic synapses by rapid hydrolysis of the
neurotransmitter Ach to acetate and choline. However, acetylcholinesterase
inhibitors can be classified as reversible and irreversible.
