Abstract— 1 The standardization of a radiochemical assay of choline acetyltransferase (acetyl‐CoA: choline‐O‐acetyltransferase EC 2.3.1.6. [ChAc]) is described. The method depends upon the use of [l‐C14]acetyl‐CoA as substrate and has been modified from the procedure originally published by MCCAMAN and HUNT (1965). 2 The modified method gave results which were comparable with two methods depending on bioassay as the end step, which had previously given the highest recorded values for rabbit brain ChAc. 3 Methods of extraction and activation of the enzyme were also investigated. The results showed that ether‐treated sucrose homogenates and cysteine‐saline extracts of acetone‐dried brain have comparable enzyme activities; both procedures give higher values than are obtained with untreated water homogenates, or sucrose homogenates treated with Nonex 501 or Triton X‐100.
