Comparative analysis of the genome of the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima revealed a hypothetical protein (EstA) with typical esterase features. The EstA protein was functionally...
Carboxylic ester hydrolases from hyperthermophiles (2009)
Carboxylic ester hydrolyzing enzymes constitute a large group of enzymes that are able to catalyze the hydrolysis, synthesis or transesterification of an ester bond. They can be found in all three...

Dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS) catalyses the first reaction of the (S)-lysine biosynthesis pathway in bacteria and plants. The hypothetical gene for dihydrodipicolinate synthase (dapA) of...
A bioinformatic screening of the genome of the hyperthermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima for ester-hydrolyzing enzymes revealed a protein with typical esterase motifs, though annotated as a...

Esterase A4 (EA4) is a timer protein found in diapause eggs of the silkworm Bombyx mori. The gene for this metalloglycoprotein was cloned from B. mori eggs and expressed using a baculovirus...
Regulation of pentose catabolic pathway genes of Aspergillus niger (2007)
Wosten, H.A.B., Levisson, M., VanKuyk, P.A., Ruijter, G.J.G., ...
The aim of this study was to obtain a better understanding of the pentose catabolism in Aspergillus niger and the regulatory systems that affect it. To this end, we have cloned and characterised the...
