Abstract
Extracellular esterase activities in Emericella nidulans and Talaromyces emersonii are attributed to small enzymes with molecular weights less than 10 kDa (microenzymes). A 1.6 kDa esterase accounted for most of the esterase activity observed in both organisms and one of them also contained a 4.1 kDa microenzyme with weaker esterase activity. These esterases were growth-associated and active towards fluorescein dibutyrate and α-naphthyl acetate as well as tributyrin.
