Crystal Structure of Recombinant Human Acetylcholinesterase in Complex with (-)-huperzine ACrystal Structure of Recombinant Human Acetylcholinesterase in Complex with (-)-huperzine A

Structural highlights 4ey5 is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Ligands: , , , , , Gene: ACHE (Homo sapiens) Activity: Acetylcholinesterase, with EC number 3.1.1.7 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, RCSB, PDBsum Publication Abstract from PubMed Human acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is a significant target for therapeutic drugs. Here we present high resolution crystal structures of human AChE, alone and in complexes with drug ligands; donepezil, an Alzheimer's disease drug, binds differently to human AChE than it does to Torpedo AChE. These crystals of human AChE provide a more accurate platform for further drug development than previously available.
