Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Involved in the detoxification of xenobiotics and in the activation of ester and amide prodrugs (PubMed:9169443). Shows high catalytic efficiency for hydrolysis of cocaine, 4-methylumbelliferyl acetate, heroin and 6-monoacetylmorphine (PubMed:9169443). Hydrolyzes aspirin, substrates with large alcohol group and small acyl group and endogenous lipids such as triacylglycerol (PubMed:28677105). Converts monoacylglycerides to free fatty acids and glycerol. Hydrolyzes of 2-arachidonoylglycerol and prostaglandins (PubMed:21049984). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21049984, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9169443, ECO:0000303|PubMed:28677105}. |
| Pathway | |
| Protein Families | Type-B carboxylesterase/lipase family |
| Tissue Specificity | Preferentially expressed in intestine with moderate expression in liver. Within the intestine, highest expression is found in small intestine with lower expression in colon and rectum. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9144407}. |
