| Abstract: | Kinetic analysis of the activating effect of substrate on the cholinesterase catalysis is performed. There are determined values of coefficient of activation A in the pH zone 5.0-7.5 for the process of hydrolysis of acetylcholine, indophenylacetate (IPA), and 2,6-dichlorophenolindophenylacetate (DIPA) by cholinesterase (ChE) of horse blood serum, as well as of IPA and DIPA by ChE of optical ganglia of the Pacific squid Todarodes pacificus. The phenomenon of activation has not been revealed at hydrolysis of phenylacetate by the horse blood serum ChE. The conclusion is made that the cause of the activating effect of substrate on the process of enzymatic hydrolysis by ChEs of different origin is the presence of the onium grouping in the structure of substrates. |
