Abstract
The classification, molecular structure and substrate specificity of s erine esterases and phosphoric triester hydrolases is described. Human serum cholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8) and paraoxonase (EC 3.1.8.1) are de scribed in more detail. The clinical significance of these two esteras es is also discussed.
