Listed in this section are hydrolases not accumulated other parts of the Concise Guide, such as monoacylglycerol lipase and acetylcholinesterase. Pancreatic is predominant mechanism fat digestion alimentary system; its inhibition associated with decreased absorption. CES1 present at lower levels gut than CES2 (P23141), but predominates liver, where it responsible for hydrolysis many aliphatic, ...

(1) Background: ochratoxins are mycotoxins produced by filamentous fungi with important implications in the food manufacturing industry due to their toxicity. Decontamination specific ochratoxin-degrading enzymes has become an interesting alternative for treatment of contaminated commodities. (2) Methods: using a structure-based approach based on homology modeling, blind molecular docking subst...

The Earth has entered the Anthropocene, which is branded by ubiquitous and devastating environmental pollution from plastics such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Ecofriendly at same time economical solutions for plastic recycling reuse are being sought more urgently now than ever. With possibility to recover its building blocks, hydrolysis of PET waste selective biodegradation with polyest...

Abstract — Planctomycetes of the class Phycisphaerae are aerobic and anaerobic heterotrophic bacteria that colonize a wide range marine terrestrial habitats. Their functional roles in environment, however, still poorly understood. Humisphaera borealis M1803 T is one very few characterized planctomycetes this class. It also first described representative previously uncultured group WD2101, which...

Activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) is a powerful method to display enzyme activities in proteomes, and provides crucial information on enzyme activity, rather than protein or transcript abundance. We applied ABPP using fluorophosphonate (FP)-based probes to display the activities of serine (Ser) hydrolases in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. AARE; serine carboxypeptidase-like SNG1 and...

Decreased binding by the lectins concanavalin A and wheat-germ agglutinin was found for a number of acidic hydrolases from skin fibroblasts of three unrelated patients with mucolipidosis II. This decreased binding as compared with normal controls was demonstrated by titration of hydrolase activities with increasing amounts of immobilized lectins. Neuraminidase treatment slightly improved the bi...

The Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 genome contains three putative N-acyl homoserine lactone (acyl-HSL) hydrolases, which are closely related to the lactonase AiiA of Bacillus. When expressed in Escherichia coli, two of the putative acyl-HSL hydrolases, AttM and AiiB, conferred the ability to degrade acyl-HSLs on the host. In Erwinia strain 6276, the lactonases reduced the endogenous acyl-HSL lev...
