ABSTRACT
Organophosphorus pesticides ( OPP) and organophosphorus nerve agents ( OPNAs) are both toxic organophosphorus compounds, which mainly exert toxic effects through irreversible inhibition of acetylcholinesterase ( AChE).This paper takes protein adducts as the research objective, studying the covalent adducts formed by OPP/OPNAs and different target proteins:endogenous scavengers ( butyrylcholinesterase, albumin, transfer-rin) and low-dose toxicity related proteins ( Cytoskeleton pro- tein, neuropathic target esterase, ubiquitin ) .The formation mechanism of protein adducts and the structural characteristics of active sites are reviewed for providing new ideas to confirm the exposure, trace, and accurate treatment and reasonable prevention of OP poisons in the future.
