Abstract

A low but significant activity of cholesteryl ester hydrolase (EC 3.1.1.13) activity has been demonstrated in human placenta. A 352-fold purification of this enzyme has been achieved that gives only one band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The rise in specific activity with purification does not appear to be attributable to a decrease in pool size of cholesteryl ester.
