Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * The CES1 gene is located on chromosome 17q21.1. * It is a large gene, encoding a protein of 1,304 amino acids. * The protein is expressed in the cytoplasm of cells. * It is a transmembrane protein, with a signal peptide of 23 amino acids and a transmembrane domain of approximately 1,069 amino acids. * It is a member of the carboxylesterase family of enzymes. **Pathways and functions:** * CES1 is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including: * Aspirin adme * Biological oxidations * Carboxylesterase activity * Carboxylic ester hydrolase activity * Cardiac conduction * Cholesterol biosynthetic process * Cholesterol metabolic process * Drug adme * Metabolism of proteins * Methylumbelliferyl-acetate deacetylase activity * Muscle contraction * Negative regulation of cholesterol storage * Peptide hormone metabolism * Phase i - functionalization of compounds * Physiological factors * Positive regulation of cholesterol efflux * Response to toxic substance * CES1 is a key regulator of cholesterol metabolism. It is upregulated in response to fasting and obesity, and it plays a role in regulating cholesterol efflux from cells. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the CES1 gene have been linked to several human diseases, including hyperlipidemia, atherosclerosis, and diabetes. * CES1 inhibitors are being investigated as potential treatments for these diseases.
