Descriptor English: Carboxylesterase
Descriptor Spanish: Carboxilesterasa
Descriptor carboxilesterasa
Scope note: La carboxilesterasa es una esterasa dependiente de la serina, con amplia especificidad de sustrato. La enzima interviene en la depuración de XENOBIÓTICOS y en la activación de PROFÁRMACOS estéricos o amídicos.
