| The active site gorge has <scene name='Acetylcholinesterase/New_down_gorge/6'>two binding sites</scene>, a catalytic site (consisting of the catalytic triad together with Trp84 & Phe330) and a peripheral site (including Trp 279 & Tyr 121), which helps prebind the substrate and direct it toward the active site. The 3D structure showed not only that the active site was buried deep in the enzyme, but surprisingly, there were no negatively charged residues along this gorge, as was expected to help attract the positively charged ACh substrate, rather, instead, a series of aromatic residues that are highly conserved in all AChE sequences.
