Esterase-13 of the rat (Rattus norvegicus) and its homology with esterase-3 of the house mouse (Mus musculus). 1984

M Scholze, and E Günther, and O von Deimling

A new allele of esterase-13 was detected in various laboratory inbred strains of Rattus norvegicus and designated Es-13c. The activity of ES-13 towards a range of chromogenic substrates, inhibitor profile, isoelectric points and retardation coefficients on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were determined. The organ specific expression of ES-13 alleles was investigated and it was shown that kidney homogenates contained a factor which modified the liver enzyme banding pattern in vitro. The features of ES-13 from the rat indicated homology between this esterase and ES-3 from the house mouse, Mus musculus domesticus.
