UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010744	Phosphoric Monoester Hydrolases	A group of hydrolases which catalyze the hydrolysis of monophosphoric esters with the production of one mole of orthophosphate.	Phosphatase,Phosphatases,Phosphohydrolase,Phosphohydrolases,Phosphomonoesterase,Phosphomonoesterases,Phosphoric Monoester Hydrolase,Hydrolase, Phosphoric Monoester,Hydrolases, Phosphoric Monoester,Monoester Hydrolase, Phosphoric
D011110	Polymorphism, Genetic	The regular and simultaneous occurrence in a single interbreeding population of two or more discontinuous genotypes. The concept includes differences in genotypes ranging in size from a single nucleotide site (POLYMORPHISM, SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE) to large nucleotide sequences visible at a chromosomal level.

D006801	Humans	Members of the species Homo sapiens.	Homo sapiens,Man (Taxonomy),Human,Man, Modern,Modern Man
D013379	Substrate Specificity	A characteristic feature of enzyme activity in relation to the kind of substrate on which the enzyme or catalytic molecule reacts.	Specificities, Substrate,Specificity, Substrate,Substrate Specificities
D043303	Aryldialkylphosphatase	An enzyme which catalyzes the hydrolysis of an aryl-dialkyl phosphate to form dialkyl phosphate and an aryl alcohol. It can hydrolyze a broad spectrum of organophosphate substrates and a number of aromatic carboxylic acid esters. It may also mediate an enzymatic protection of LOW DENSITY LIPOPROTEINS against oxidative modification and the consequent series of events leading to ATHEROMA formation. The enzyme was previously regarded to be identical with Arylesterase (EC 3.1.1.2).
