Cutinase and Other Lipolytic Esterases Protect Bean Leaves from Infection by Rhizoctonia solani

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1998
The results describe a novel activity of fungal cutinase, the protection of bean leaves from disease. Development of web blight symptoms on bean leaves infected with Rhizoctonia solani (AG-1) was prevented in the presence of cutinase purified from ...

Immunohistochemical localization of carboxylesterase in the nasal mucosa of rats. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The enzymatic esterase activity of carboxylesterases is integral to the nasal toxicity of many esters used as industrial solvents or in polymer manufacture, including propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, dimethyl glutarate, dimethyl succinate ...

Human Variability in Carboxylesterases and carboxylesterase-related Uncertainty Factors for Chemical Risk Assessment

open access: yesToxicology Letters, 2021
Carboxylesterases (CES) are an important class of enzymes involved in the hydrolysis of a range of chemicals and show large inter-individual variability in vitro. An extensive literature search was performed to identify in vivo probe substrates for CES1 and CES2 together with their protein content and enzymatic activity. Human pharmacokinetic (PK) data

Trypanosoma cruzi: Carboxylesterase activity in intact epimastigotes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
1. 1. Carboxylesterase activity corresponding to types A and B has been demonstrated in intact T. cruzi epimastigotes as shown by the hydrolysis of several esters of p-nitrophenol and the effect of suitable inhibitors. 2. 2.

Involvement of Carboxylesterase in Hydrolysis of Propranolol Prodrug during Permeation across Rat Skin

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2013
The use of a prodrug, a conjugate of an active drug with a lipophilic substituent, is a good way of increasing the cutaneous absorption of a drug. However, the activity of dermal hydrolases has rarely been investigated in humans, or experimental animals.

Autoantibodies to hepatic microsomal carboxylesterase in halothane hepatitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Halothane hepatitis can be life-threatening, and this severe adverse reaction may arise via an immune process. We have detected autoantibodies to purified human liver microsomal carboxylesterase in sera of 17 out of 20 patients with halothane hepatitis ...
