N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester monohydrate has been used:
as a substrate in transesterification reactions with 1 M propan-1-ol catalyzed by Carlsberg protease protein-coated microcrystals (PCMC)[1]
to test the performance of subtilisin Carlsberg protein-coated microcrystals (PCMC)[2]
as a substrate for cross-linked crystals (CLECs) of subtilisin activity screening[3]
Biochem/physiol Actions
N-Acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester is an N-terminal and C-terminal protected L-tyrosine that is used in crosslinking studies and as a substrate for the detection, differentiation and/or characterization various proteases and esterases.
To evaluate if unconjugated bilirubin (UB) inhibits C1 esterase activity. Esterase activity was evaluated by C1-mediated hydrolysis of N-acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester, and binding of UB to C1r and C1s was assessed by dot-blot analysis. UB inhibited C1 enzymatic activity. C1r

Recently, we reported a new high-activity biocatalyst for use in organic media termed protein-coated microcrystals (PCMC) (Kreiner et al. [2001] Chem Commun 12:1096-1097). These novel particles consist of water-soluble micron-sized crystalline particles coated with the given biocatalyst(s) and are prepared
