Function
This enzyme is involved in the detoxification of xenobiotics and in the activation of ester and amide prodrugs. It shows high catalytic efficiency for hydrolysis of cocaine, 4-methylumbelliferyl acetate, heroin and 6-monoacetylmorphine. It also hydrolyzes aspirin, substrates with large alcohol group and small acyl group and endogenous lipids such as triacylglycerol.
KEGG Pathway
Drug metabolism - other enzymes (hsa00983 )
Reactome Pathway
Phase I - Functionalization of compounds (R-HSA-211945 )
