General description
Carboxylesterase 1 (CE1) is a member of a large multigene[1] carboxylesterase α,β-hydrolase family.[2] It is majorly expressed in the liver.[2] CE1 comprises an αβ domain, a central catalytic domain and a regulatory domain.[2]
This product is offered in a volume of 0.5 mL.
Application
Carboxylesterase 1 isoform c human has been used as a reference standard in carboxylesterase activity from the mussel for comparison of substrate specificity and inhibition studies.[3] It has also been used as a commercial recombinant protein for the methodological validation of environmental chemical-based inhibition studies.[4]
Biochem/physiol Actions
Carboxylesterase enzymes are responsible for the hydrolysis of ester- and amide-bond-containing drugs such as cocaine and heroin.[2] They also hydrolyze long-chain fatty acid esters and thioesters. Carboxylesterase 1 (CE1) catalyzes the formation of cholesteryl esters from cholesterol and fatty acids. Through a transesterification reaction, CE1 also mediates the generation of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs).[2] It also hydrolyzes aromatic and aliphatic esters with preference to small alcohol groups and bulky acyl groups.[5] CE1 metabolizes drug esters and amides carbamates. It participates in the detoxification of environmental toxicants and carcinogens and is useful in pharmacokinetic studies for evaluating pro-drugs.[6]
Other Notes
One unit will hydrolyze one nanomole of 4-nitrophenyl acetate per minute at pH 7.4 at 37 °C.
