Effect of substrate composition and concentration on aortic cholesterol ester hydrolase activity

J Patelski et al. Enzyme. 1978.

Abstract

Cholesterol ester hydrolase activity of pig aorta has been examined under optimum experimental conditions for hydrolysis of different cholesterol esters. The enzyme specific activity values were in the numerical order of substrates hydrolyzed: cholesteryl linoleate larger than or equal to linolenate greater than palmitate larger than or equal to stearate greater than oleate. The results are discussed in relation to the arterial accumulation of cholesterol esters.
