Abstract excerpt
A variable kidney esterase found in the common shrew has a trimeric structure as indicated by the phenotypes of heterozygotes. From substrate specificity and tissue distribution this enzyme appears to be homologous with esterase-6 of the mouse, also a trimeric enzyme. It is suggested that a trimeric esterase may have been a feature of early eutherian mammals.
