Abstract
Organophosphorus (OP) compounds pose a serious risk to human health by covalently modifying acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE). Currently approved oxime therapeutics can reactivate OP-inhibited AChE and BChE, despite significant limitations. The OP-inhibited enzymes undergo a secondary O-dealkylation event, known as aging, for which no currently approved therapeutics are effective as treatments. Many decades of research have studied the aging mechanism in AChE and BChE. It has previously been accepted that aging occurs via a spontaneous O-dealkylation event, by loss of a carbocation or by water hydrolysis of the OP-adducted serine residue. Here, we present a novel mechanism of aging in which the catalytic histidine acts as a nucleophile to induce aging and, as a result, becomes alkylated after exposure to methyl paraoxon (MP) and other pesticides. Using bottom-up proteomics, we identify that upon aging of MP-inhibited AChE and BChE, a methyl transfer occurs from the phosphylated serine residue to the catalytic histidine residue. The extent of histidine methylation is pH-dependent as less methylation is observed at lower pH, while increased methylation is observed at higher pH. At near physiological pH (7.5), the ratio of N-MeHis/His is 3:1 for AChE and 1.3:1 for BChE after 24 h. When other OP compounds were also tested for histidine modification, ethyl paraoxon was shown to result in ethylation of the catalytic histidine; however, when the alkoxy group was branched in the case of an isopropoxy group present in diisopropyl fluorophosphate, no alkylation of histidine was observed. Recent advances in the development of quinone methide precursors show promise in the recovery of OP-aged AChE. In this work, we discuss the importance of this novel aging mechanism and its impact on the recoverability of OP-aged AChE or BChE as it appears that the histidine modification limits the overall recovery of active AChE.

Abstract
The main function of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is to regulate the levels of one of the most important neurotransmitters: acetylcholine. This makes AChE an ideal molecular target for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and dementia (such as Alzheimer's disease), as well as for the neutralisation of natural toxins (e.g., venom peptides) and chemical warfare agents. The significance of AChE inhibitors in slowing the progression of dementia, as well as the role of reactivators in treating poisoned individuals, is reflected in several co-crystallised complexes deposited in the Protein Data Bank. In this study, we analysed all deposited AChE-small-molecule complexes to gain insights into compound binding and to provide guidance for the future design of therapeutic drugs and new antidotes.

Abstract
Cholinesterases are well-known and widely studied enzymes crucial to human health and involved in neurology, Alzheimer's, and lipid metabolism. The protonation pattern of active sites of cholinesterases influences all the chemical processes within, including reaction, covalent inhibition by nerve agents, and reactivation. Despite its significance, our comprehension of the fine structure of cholinesterases remains limited. In this study, we employed enhanced-sampling quantum-mechanical/molecular-mechanical calculations to show that cholinesterases predominantly operate as dynamic mixtures of two protonation states. The proton transfer between two non-catalytic glutamate residues follows the Grotthuss mechanism facilitated by a mediator water molecule. We show that this uncovered complexity of active sites presents a challenge for classical molecular dynamics simulations and calls for special treatment. The calculated proton transfer barrier of 1.65 kcal/mol initiates a discussion on the potential existence of two coupled low-barrier hydrogen bonds in the inhibited form of butyrylcholinesterase. These findings expand our understanding of structural features expressed by highly evolved enzymes and guide future advances in cholinesterase-related protein and drug design studies.

Abstract
Previously we reported two salicylaldoxime conjugates (L7R3 and L7R5) showing equal or even higher reactivating efficiency for both organophosphorus nerve agent and pesticide inhibited acetylcholinesterase in comparison to obidoxime and HI-6. In this study, L7R3 and L7R5 were selected as lead compounds and refined by employing a fragment-based drug design strategy, and a total of 32 novel salicylaldoxime conjugates were constructed and screened for DFP and paraoxon inhibited acetylcholinesterase. The findings demonstrate that the conjugate L73R3, which contains a 4-nitrophenyl group, exhibited a higher reactivation efficacy against paraoxon-inhibited acetylcholinesterase compared to obidoxime and HI-6. It was confirmed that the combination of a 4-pyridinyl or 4-nitrophenyl peripheral site ligand, a piperazine linker and a methyl or chloro-substituted salicylaldoxime could construct efficient nonquaternary oxime reactivators. The results hold promise for developing a new generation of highly effective antidotes for organophosphate poisoning.

Abstract
Catalytic activity and function of acetylcholinesterase (AChE; EC 3.1.1.7) have been recognized and studied for over a century and its quaternary and primary structures for about half a century, and its tertiary structure has been known for about 33 years. Clear understanding of relationships between the structure and the function is still pending for this enzyme. Hundreds of crystallographic, static snapshots of AChEs from different sources reveal largely one general backbone conformation with narrow entry into the active center gorge, tightly fit to accept one acetylcholine (ACh) molecule, in contrast to its high catalytic turnover. This short review of available X-ray structures of AChEs from electric ray Torpedo californica, mouse and human, finds some limited, yet consistent deviations in conformations of selected secondary structure elements of AChE relevant for its function. The observed conformational diversity of the acyl pocket loop of AChE, unlike the large Ω-loop, appears consistent with structurally dynamic INS data and solution-based SAXS experiments to explain its dominant role in controlling the size of the active center gorge opening, as well as connectivity between the immediate surroundings of the buried active Ser, and catalytically relevant sites on the AChE surface.

Abstract
A series of new uncharged conjugates of adenine, 3,6-dimetyl-, 1,6-dimethyl- and 6-methyluracil with 1,2,4-triazole-3-hydroxamic and 1,2,3-triazole-4-hydroxamic acid moieties were synthesized and studied as reactivators of organophosphate-inhibited cholinesterase. It is shown that triazole-hydroxamic acids can reactivate acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibited by paraoxon (POX) in vitro, offering reactivation constants comparable to those of pralidoxime (2-PAM). However, in contrast to 2-PAM, triazole-hydroxamic acids demonstrated the ability to reactivate AChE in the brain of rats poisoned with POX. At a dose of 200 mg/kg (i.v.), the lead compound 3e reactivated 22.6 ± 7.3% of brain AChE in rats poisoned with POX. In a rat model of POX-induced delayed neurodegeneration, compound 3e reduced the neuronal injury labeled with FJB upon double administration 1 and 3 h after poisoning. Compound 3e was also shown to prevent memory impairment of POX-poisoned rats as tested in a Morris water maze.

Abstract
Organophosphorus insecticides (OPs), acting as serine phosphorylating agents in acetylcholinesterase (AChE), are highly effective neurotoxic insecticides. In our previous research, we found that six herbivorous pests and four ladybirds howed significantly higher AChE LC50 values than seven parasitoids and a predator (Epistrophe balteate), and that there was a significant correlation with the corresponding bimolecular rate constant (Ki) value. The Ki value of pests was much smaller than that of natural enemies and had a higher LC50 value.Then, we speculated that the low sensitivity of the pest AChE to OPs may be associated with its higher recovery and lower aging ability. In this work, the I50 and I90 were calculated, to determine the sensibility of AChE in ten representative species, including Plutella xylostella, Prodenia litura, Musca domestica, and Cavia porcellus, to paraoxon and malaoxon. The enzyme activities were measured at various time points, and kinetic calculations were used to obtain their spontaneous reactivation (Ks) and aging (Ka) constants, which were comprehensively compared. We conclude that the Ka and Ks of the AChE inhibited by OPs showed primarily species-specific correlations, and little correlation with the sensitivity to OPs. The differences in the AChE sensitivity to paraoxon among the ten species were much greater than in the sensitivity to malaoxon. Compared to paraoxon, malaoxon was more selective for Cavia porcellus. Coleoptera insects showed a stronger dephosphorylation ability than other insect groups. The recovery ability of phospho-AChE was stronger in mammals than in insects, which could be related to the low sensitivity of the AChE site of action to OPs. The Ka of the AChE inhibited by malaoxon was larger than that inhibited by paraoxon with the corresponding biomaterials, indicating that the OP type had a substantial relationship with the Ka of the AChE. We further discovered that, when insects were inhibited by OP, the tendency of AChE to undergo aging was greater than that of dephosphorylation. Overall, the study provides valuable information on the action mechanism of various OPs on AChE in several species, which could be used to further research into AChE and the potential dangers that organophosphates pose to animals.

Abstract
Cholinesterases (ChEs) display a non-michaelian behavior with positively charged substrates. In the steady-state rate equation, the b factor describes this behavior: if b > 1 there is substrate activation, if b < 1 there is substrate inhibition. The mechanistic significance of the b factor was investigated to determine whether this behavior depends on acylation, deacylation or on both steps. Kinetics of human acetyl- (AChE) and butyryl-cholinesterase (BChE) were performed under steady-state conditions and using a time-course of complete substrate hydrolysis. For the hydrolysis of short acyl(thio)esters, where acylation and deacylation are partly rate-limiting, steady-state kinetic analysis could not decide which step determines b. However, the study of the hydrolysis of an arylacylamide, 3-(acetamido)-N,N,N-trimethylanilinium (ATMA), where acetylation is rate-limiting, showed that b depends on the acylation step. The magnitude of b and opposite b values between AChE and BChE for the hydrolysis of acetyl(thio)- versus benzoyl-(thio) esters, then indicated that the productive adjustment of substrates in the active center at high concentration depends on motions of both the Ω and the acyl-binding loops. Benzoylcholine was shown to be a poor substrate of AChE, and steady-state kinetics showed a sudden inhibition at high concentration, likely due to the non-dissociation of hydrolysis products. The poor catalytic hydrolysis of this bulky ester by AChE illustrates the importance of the fine adjustment of substrate acyl moiety in the acyl-binding pocket. Molecular modeling and QM/MM simulations should definitively provide evidence for this statement.

Abstract
Chiral organophosphorus pollutants are found abundantly in the environment, but the neurotoxicity risks of these asymmetric chemicals to human health have not been fully assessed. Using cellular, molecular, and computational toxicology methods, this story is to explore the static and dynamic toxic actions and its stereoselective differences of chiral isocarbophos toward SH-SY5Y nerve cells mediated by acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and further dissect the microscopic basis of enantioselective neurotoxicity. Cell-based assays indicate that chiral isocarbophos exhibits strong enantioselectivity in the inhibition of the survival rates of SH-SY5Y cells and the intracellular AChE activity, and the cytotoxicity of (S)-isocarbophos is significantly greater than that of (R)-isocarbophos. The inhibitory effects of isocarbophos enantiomers on the intracellular AChE activity are dose-dependent, and the half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) of (R)-/(S)-isocarbophos are 6.179/1.753 μM, respectively. Molecular experiments explain the results of cellular assays, namely, the stereoselective toxic actions of isocarbophos enantiomers on SH-SY5Y cells are stemmed from the differences in bioaffinities between isocarbophos enantiomers and neuronal AChE. In the meantime, the modes of neurotoxic actions display that the key amino acid residues formed strong noncovalent interactions are obviously different, which are related closely to the molecular structural rigidity of chiral isocarbophos and the conformational dynamics and flexibility of the substrate binding domain in neuronal AChE. Still, we observed that the stable "sandwich-type π-π stacking" fashioned between isocarbophos enantiomers and aromatic Trp-86 and Tyr-337 residues is crucial, which notably reduces the van der Waals' contribution (ΔGvdW) in the AChE-(S)-isocarbophos complexes and induces the disparities in free energies during the enantioselective neurotoxic conjugations and thus elucidating that (S)-isocarbophos mediated by synaptic AChE has a strong toxic effect on SH-SY5Y neuronal cells. Clearly, this effort can provide experimental insights for evaluating the neurotoxicity risks of human exposure to chiral organophosphates from macroscopic to microscopic levels.
