An essential role of caffeoyl shikimate esterase in monolignol biosynthesis in Medicago truncatula.
Biochemical and genetic analyses have previously identified caffeoyl shikimate esterase (CSE) as an enzyme in the monolignol biosynthesis pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana, although the generality of this finding has been questioned.

Hydrogen sulfide alleviated chromium toxicity in wheat
Effects of H2S on seed germination under chromium (Cr) stress were investigated in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Under Cr stress, the percentage of germination of wheat seeds decreased, but this decrease could be alleviated by pretreatment with NaHS, an ...

Esterase mutation is a mechanism of resistance to antimalarial compounds
Pepstatin is a potent peptidyl inhibitor of various malarial aspartic proteases, and also has parasiticidal activity. Activity of pepstatin against cultured Plasmodium falciparum is highly variable depending on the commercial source.

NONSPECIFIC ESTERASES IN MOSQUITOS [PDF]
Esterase zymograms were prepared from 14 species and strains of Culicide mosquitoes by use of starch and polyacrylamide electrophoresis. The zymograms proved to be species- and strain-specific. Variations in the zymograms of individual mosquitos were demonstrated by use of the microgel technique. This technique is described.
