Development of a Split Esterase for Protein-Protein Interaction Dependent Small Molecule Activation [PDF]
, 2019 Split reporters based on fluorescent proteins and luciferases have emerged as valuable tools for measuring interactions in biological systems. Relatedly, biosensors that transduce measured input signals into outputs that influence the host system are key

Molecular biological characterisation of amplified esterases from organophosphate resistant and susceptible 'Culex quinquefasciatus'. [PDF]
Culex mosquitoes, as well as being vectors of filariasis and Japanese encephalitis, are a world wide biting nuisance. Organophosphorus insecticides (OPs) have been widely used to control Culex populations.

Esterase mutation is a mechanism of resistance to antimalarial compounds
Nature Communications, 2017 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.

Esterase-Sensitive Glutathione Persulfide Donor
, 2018 An esterase-sensitive glutathione persulfide (GSSH) donor (BW-GP-401) is described. The release profile was studied by monitoring the formation of lactone and direct trapping of GSSH with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (DNFB). The donor was examined for its

Esterase activity in porcine and albino rabbit ocular tissues
European Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2018 Corneal esterases are utilized in the activation of topically applied ester prodrugs. Esterases may also be involved in the metabolism of drugs in posterior eye tissues, but their physiological activity is unknown.
