Acetylcholinesterase (e.g. from Torpedo californica) hydrolysizes the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh), producing choline and an acetate group. ACh directly binds Ser200 (via its nucleophilic Oγ atom) within the catalytic triad (Ser200, His440, and Glu327) of (ACh/TcAChE structure 2ace). The residues Trp84 and Phe330 are also important in the ligand recognition.
