[Interaction of reversible inhibitors with the cholinesterase of the squid Berryteuthis magister from different areas of the Bering Sea].

Studies have been made of the interaction of 13 onium reversible inhibitors with cholinesterase from the visual ganglia of the squid B. magister from various habitats (Kurile Islands, Olyutorsk-Navarin and Navarin-Alaskan regions). In some of the cases, differences were found between the enzymes from various specimens with respect to values of the generalized inhibitor constant (which is a measure of inhibitor effectiveness) and the pattern of inhibition. These data reveal intraspecific polymorphism in B. magister from the Bering Sea.
