Hydrolysis of malathion by ali-esterases in vitro and in vivo.
The structure of malathion, S-[1,2-di(ethoxycarbonyl)ethyl] 00-dimethyl phosphorodithioate, has suggested to many investigators (e.g. Murphy & Dubois, 1957; Seume & O'Brien, 1960) that hydrolases may be involved in the synergism observed by Frawley, Fuyat, Hagan, Blake & Fitzhugh (1957) between malathion and O-ethyl O-p-nitrophenyl phenyl phosphorothioate. On the basis of their known substrate ...
متن کاملThe pH-dependence of enzymic ester hydrolysis.
The esterases of animal tissues have generally been characterized by their substrate specificity and by their behaviour towards various inhibitors. The irreversible inhibition by organic phosphates, which is due to phosphorylation of the active group (Burgen, 1949; Wilson & Bergmann, 1950a; Aldridge, 1953d), is a common property of most esterases, an interesting exception being the Aesterase of...
متن کاملOrganophosphorus compounds and esterases: current research topics concerning the toxicity of and protection against organophosphates.
This brief review describes the reactions of organophosphorus compounds with cholinesterases, neuropathy target esterase, and phosphoric triester hydrolases with respect to their toxicity. It also describes antidotes, protectors, and decontaminating agents against organophosphates.
متن کاملEnzymatic hydrolysis of steroid hormone esters by blood serum.
In recent years the concept of the specificity of enzyme action has been subjected to revision. The proteolytic enzymes (1) have been shown to have esterase activity and the concept of a blood esterase as distinct from a blood lipase is no longer tenable (2). The enzymatic hydrolysis of the steroid hormone esters by blood sera (3) had not been suspected until solubility determinations of the es...
متن کاملBiochemistry of protein-isocyanate interactions: a comparison of the effects of aryl vs. alkyl isocyanates.
In addition to their use in the polyurethane and pesticide industries, isocyanates have proven to be useful probes for the exploration of protein structure. This paper focuses on three aspects of isocyanates: their broad reactivity, their reversible interaction with cholinesterases, and the relative hydrolysis rates of alkyl and aryl isocyanates. The broad reactivity of isocyanates as well as t...
