Abstract: | The inhibition of horse serum butyrylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8) by three carbamates (eserine, neostigmine, and rivastigmine) was studied by flow microcalorimetry at 37 degrees C in Tris buffer (pH 7.5). The kinetics of carbamylation was studied in the absence or presence of the substrate, butyrylcholine, using an extension of the model described by Stojan and coworkers (FEBS Lett. 440 (1998) 85-88). The model was fitted to the data by a nonlinear regression procedure using simulated annealing followed by Marquardt's method. The affinity of the carbamates for the free enzyme increased in the order neostigmine
