Caracemide was found to inhibit choline acetyltransferase (CAT) from rat brain. A concentration of 0.5 mM caracemide inhibited the enzyme by 93%, whereas a degradation product from caracemide, N-(methylcarbamoyloxy)acetamide, produced only a 50% inhibition. Two other degradation products, N-(methyl-carbamoyloxy)-N'-methylurea and N-hydroxy-N'-methylurea, lacked any inhibitory activity. With bovine brain CAT, caracemide showed noncompetitive inhibition with the substrate choline, Km 337 microM, Ki240 microM, Vmax 2.83 nmol acetylcholine formed/min/mg protein and mixed inhibition with the substrate acetyl-CoA, Km 21 microM, Ki 146 microM, Vmax 3.85 nmol acetylcholine formed/min/mg protein.
发现卡醋胺可抑制大鼠脑内的胆碱乙酰转移酶(CAT)。浓度为0.5 mM的卡醋胺可使该酶活性抑制93%,而卡醋胺的一种降解产物N -(甲基氨基甲酰氧基)乙酰胺仅产生50%的抑制作用。另外两种降解产物N -(甲基氨基甲酰氧基)-N'-甲基脲和N -羟基-N'-甲基脲则没有任何抑制活性。对于牛脑CAT,卡醋胺对底物胆碱表现为非竞争性抑制,Km为337 microM,Ki为240 microM,Vmax为每分钟每毫克蛋白质形成2.83 nmol乙酰胆碱;对底物乙酰辅酶A表现为混合抑制,Km为21 microM,Ki为146 microM,Vmax为每分钟每毫克蛋白质形成3.85 nmol乙酰胆碱。
