Esterase

In biochemistry, an esterase is a class of enzyme that splits esters into an acid and an alcohol in a chemical reaction with water called hydrolysis.

EC classification/list of enzymes
EC 3.1.1: Carboxylic ester hydrolases • Acetylesterase (EC 3.1.1.6), splits off acetyl groupsCholinesteraseAcetylcholinesterase, inactivates the neurotransmitter acetylcholinePseudocholinesterase, broad substrate specificity, found in the blood plasma and in the liverPectinesterase (EC 3.1.1.11), clarifies fruit juices • EC 3.1.2: Thiolester hydrolasesThioesteraseUbiquitin carboxy-terminal hydrolase L1EC 3.1.3: Phosphoric monoester hydrolasesPhosphatase (EC 3.1.3.x), hydrolyses phosphoric acid monoesters into a phosphate ion and an alcohol • Alkaline phosphatase, removes phosphate groups from many types of molecules, including nucleotides, proteins, and alkaloids. • Phosphodiesterase (PDE), inactivates the second messenger cAMPcGMP specific phosphodiesterase type 5, is inhibited by Sildenafil (Viagra) • Fructose bisphosphatase (3.1.3.11), converts fructose-1,6-bisphosphate to fructose-6-phosphate in gluconeogenesisEC 3.1.4: Phosphoric diester hydrolasesEC 3.1.5: Triphosphoric monoester hydrolasesEC 3.1.6: Sulfuric ester hydrolases (sulfatases) • EC 3.1.7: Diphosphoric monoester hydrolasesEC 3.1.8: Phosphoric triester hydrolasesExonucleases (deoxyribonucleases and ribonucleases) • EC 3.1.11: Exodeoxyribonucleases producing 5'-phosphomonoestersEC 3.1.13: Exoribonucleases producing 5'-phosphomonoestersEC 3.1.14: Exoribonucleases producing 3'-phosphomonoestersEC 3.1.15: Exonucleases active with either ribo- or deoxy- • Endonucleases (deoxyribonucleases and ribonucleases) • EndodeoxyribonucleaseEndoribonuclease • either deoxy- or ribo- == See also ==
