Characterization of the EstP protein in Drosophila melanogaster and its conservation in drosophilids.

Biochemical genetics - 1 Aug 1997

Dumancic M M, Oakeshott J G, Russell R J, Healy M J

Abstract excerpt

The beta-esterase cluster of D. melanogaster comprises two tandemly duplicated genes. Est6 encodes the well-characterized 5' gene, but the product of the second gene, denoted EstP, had not previously been identified. Here we show that the EstP gene encodes the carboxylesterase EST7. Expression of EstP using the Baculovirus system led to production of a carboxylesterase biochemically indistinguishable from EST7....
