A novel esterase from a marine metagenomic library exhibiting salt tolerance ability.

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2014
A putative lipolytic enzyme gene, named as est9x, was obtained from a marine microbial metagenome of the South China Sea. Sequence analysis showed that Est9X shares lower than 27% sequence identities with the characterized lipolytic enzymes, but ...

Paraben esters: review of recent studies of endocrine toxicity, absorption, esterase and human exposure, and discussion of potential human health risks

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, 2008
This toxicology update reviews research over the past four years since publication in 2004 of the first measurement of intact esters of p‐hydroxybenzoic acid (parabens) in human breast cancer tissues, and the suggestion that their presence in the human ...

A Pichia anomala Strain (P. anomala M1) Isolated from Traditional Greek Sausage is an Effective Producer of Extracellular Lipolytic Enzyme in Submerged Fermentation

open access: yesFermentation, 2017
Ayeast isolate, selected for its lipolytic activity from a meat product, was characterized as Pichia anomala. Lipolytic activity, determined on p-NPA as esterase, was maximum at 28 °C, pH 6.5, and induced by the short chain triglyceride tributyrin ...

Characterization of a Feruloyl Esterase from Lactobacillus plantarum

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2013
Lactobacillus plantarum is frequently found in the fermentation of plant-derived food products, where hydroxycinnamoyl esters are abundant. L. plantarum WCFS1 cultures were unable to hydrolyze hydroxycinnamoyl esters; however, cell extracts from the ...

Purification and characterization of an extracellular esterase with organic solvent tolerance from a halotolerant isolate, Salimicrobium sp. LY19

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2013
BackgroundHalotolerant bacteria are excellent sources for selecting novel enzymes. Being intrinsically stable and active under high salinities, enzymes from these prokaryotes have evolved to function optimally under extreme conditions, making them robust

Exposures to pesticides and risk of cancer: Evaluation of recent epidemiological evidence in humans and paths forward

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 152, Issue 5, Page 879-912, 1 March 2023., 2023
Abstract Knowledge of the role in cancer etiology of environmental exposures as pesticides is a prerequisite for primary prevention. We review 63 epidemiological studies on exposure to pesticides and cancer risk in humans published from 2017 to 2021, with emphasis on new findings, methodological approaches, and gaps in the existing literature.
