Sourcing thermotolerant poly(ethylene terephthalate) hydrolase scaffolds from natural diversity
Nature Communications, 2022 Enzymatic deconstruction of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is under intense investigation, given the ability of hydrolase enzymes to depolymerize PET to its constituent monomers near the polymer glass transition temperature.

Primary Structure and Catalytic Mechanism of the Epoxide Hydrolase from Agrobacterium radiobacter AD1 [PDF]
, 1997 The epoxide hydrolase gene from Agrobacterium radiobacter AD1, a bacterium that is able to grow on epichlorohydrin as the sole carbon source, was cloned by means of the polymerase chain reaction with two degenerate primers based on the N-terminal and C ...

Predicting Bacteriophage Enzymes and Hydrolases by Using Combined Features
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020 Bacteriophage is a type of virus that could infect the host bacteria. They have been applied in the treatment of pathogenic bacterial infection. Phage enzymes and hydrolases play the most important role in the destruction of bacterial cells.

Lysosomal hydrolases of the epidermis.
British Journal of Dermatology, 1975 Four distinct peptide hydrolases (EC 3-4) have been characterized in guinea-pig epidermis; these are cathepsin B1, cathepsin C, cathepsin D and arylamidase. Their properties are consistent with those of lysosomal enzymes. Cathepsin E was not detected.

Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Dimerization Is Required for Hydrolase Activity [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2013 Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) plays a key role in the metabolic conversion of the protective eicosanoid 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid to 14,15-dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid. Accordingly, inhibition of sEH hydrolase activity has been shown to be beneficial in multiple models of cardiovascular diseases, thus identifying sEH as a valuable therapeutic ...

Lipoamidase is a multiple hydrolase [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1990 The substrate specificity of lipoamidase, purified from the pig brain membrane with lipoyl 4-aminobenzoate (LPAB) as a substrate, was extensively studied. This single polypeptide was found to hydrolyse the bonding between amide, ester and peptide compounds. However, stringent structural requirements were found in the substrates, e.g.
