2,3-Butanedione monoxime, also known as diacetyl monoxime, is a nucleophilic agent which dephosphorylates acetylcholinesterase poisoned with organophosphates. This "chemical phosphatase" activity stimulated studies of the effect of 2,3-butanedione monoxime on phosphorylation-dependent cellular processes. As a result of these studies, we
