High impact information on esterase

  • Two defective genomic copies of MdmaT from the housefly Musca domestica, with 85% identity, were found flanking and imbedded in the MdalphaE7 esterase gene involved in organophosphate insecticide resistance [1].
  • However, histochemical staining of individual ges-1(0) embryos shows that the ges-1 esterase is the first and essentially the only esterase to be produced during embryonic development, from the midproliferation phase up to at least the twofold stage of morphogenesis [2].
  • The effect of Cereal cyst nematode (Heterodera avenae) infection on the expression of putative root defence-related enzymes, peroxidase (PER), esterase (EST) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), was studied in roots of a wheat/Aegilops triuncialis introgression line TR-3531 carrying the Cre7 resistance gene [3].
  • cDNA sequence, gene structure, and cholinesterase-like domains of an esterase from Caenorhabditis elegans mapped to chromosome V [4].
