Paraoxonase and Arylesterase Activities in Dipper and Non-Dipper Prehypertensive Subjects [PDF]
Paraoxonase-1, a high-density lipoprotein linked enzyme complex, was shown to be decreased in several cardiovascular diseases. We aimed to explore whether serum paraoxonase and arylesterase activities differ in dipper and non-dipper prehypertensive ...

Increased oxidized-LDL levels and arylesterase activity/HDL ratio in ESRD patients treated with hemodialysis [PDF]
Purpose: Investigations, in which oxidized-low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL), serum paraoxonase (PON1) and homocysteine (Hcy) are considered together as important agents involved in the development of oxidative and atherogenic events in non-diabetic ...

Metal‐Dependent Effects and Crowding Robustness of Pseudomonas fluorescens Esterase I
Pseudomonas fluorescens esterase I retains catalytic activity in metal‐rich and crowded environments, despite metal‐specific inhibitory effects. These findings highlight its robustness for biocatalytic applications in complex environments. Industrial biocatalysts are strongly influenced by their physicochemical environment, yet systematic studies on ...

Unlocking Lactonase Enzymes as Biocatalysts for the Deracemisation of Chiral γ‐Thiolactones
The application of lactonase enzymes as biocatalysts still remains underexplored. This study discloses the biocatalytic activity of two lactonases in the deracemisation of chiral C3‐substituted‐γ‐thiolactones. The biocatalyst GcL catalyses the enzymatic kinetic resolution (EKR) of C3‐amide‐thiolactones, while the rationally engineered biocatalyst N9 ...
