Abstract
The present work describes a simple integrated Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics method developed to study the reactivation steps by pralidoxime (2-PAM) of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibited by the neurotoxic agent Tabun. The method was tested on an AChE model and showed to be able to corroborate most of the results obtained before, through a more complex and time-consuming methodology, proving to be suitable to this kind of mechanistic study at a lower computational cost.
