Biological function summary
CES2 acts in the hydrolysis process converting prodrugs into active compounds. It functions independently and is not typically part of a larger complex. This enzyme demonstrates broad substrate specificity impacting the metabolic activation of several therapeutic agents. Its activity affects the bioavailability and activation of medicines such as irinotecan and capecitabine which are used in cancer treatments.
Pathways
CES2 takes part in the drug metabolism pathway involving cytochrome P450 enzymes. It interacts with CYP3A4 one of the key enzymes in this system and facilitates the conversion of chemical compounds into pharmacologically active or inactive metabolites. CES2 also participates in lipid metabolism affecting the ester and triglyceride hydrolysis alongside lipases and other related enzymes.
