Acetylcholinesterase acetylcholine acetylhydrolase, also known as AChase or acetylhydrolase, is the primary type of cholinesterase in the body, coded for in the human by the gene ACHE. It is an enzyme

…with this property are called catalytically perfect or kinetically perfect. Example of such enzymes are triose-phosphate isomerase, carbonic anhydrase, acetylcholinesterase, catalase, fumarase, β-lactamase, and superoxide dismutase. The turnover of such enzymes can reach several million reactions per second. But most enzymes…
