Snake venoms are cocktails of enzymes and non‐enzymatic proteins used for both the
immobilization and digestion of prey. The most common snake venom enzymes include …

Many enzymes are inhibited by their own substrates, leading to velocity curves that rise to a
maximum and then descend as the substrate concentration increases. Substrate inhibition is …

The parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system regulates the activity of
multiple organ systems. Muscarinic receptors are G-protein-coupled receptors that mediate …

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) hydrolyze the
neurotransmitter acetylcholine and, thereby, function as coregulators of cholinergic …

In accordance with its biological role, termination of neurotransmission at cholinergic
synapses by rapid hydrolysis of the neurotransmitter, acetylcholine, acetylcholinesterase is …

The molecular biological revolution and the mapping of the human genome continue to
