Beschreibung

Butyrylcholinesterase (BCHE, BuChE, PCHE, pseudocholinesterase, plasma cholinesterase, Acylcholine acyl-hydrolase, Choline esterase; EC 3.1.1.8, CAS No [9001-08-5]) is an enzyme that made in the liver and found mainly in blood plasma. It catalyzes the following reaction: Acylcholine + H2O → choline + carboxylic acidOne unit of Butyrylcholinesterase will change absorbance by 0.2 milliunits (mA) per minute at optimal buffer conditions and 37 ̊C. Equine serum butyrylcholinesterase is supplied as white to pale grey-green powder with activity of ≥50U/mg and specific activity of ≥300U/mg protein. It can be dissolved at 5 mg/mL concentration in 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.3 - 7.5, giving colorless to slightly green solution. Equine serum butyrylcholinesterase is activated by Ca2+, optimum pH 7-8, KM=18 µM (butyrylthiocholine at 25°C). Store at -20°C on arrival.
