ID:CMBL_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Carboxymethylenebutenolidase homolog; EC=3.1.-.-; FUNCTION: Cysteine hydrolase. Can convert the prodrug olmesartan medoxomil into its pharmacologically active metabolite olmerstatan, an angiotensin receptor blocker, in liver and intestine. May also activate beta-lactam antibiotics faropenem medoxomil and lenampicillin. ENZYME REGULATION: Strongly inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB). Partially inhibited by bis-p-nitrophenylphosphate (BNPP). Not inhibited by DFP, PMSF, eserine or EDTA. BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: Kinetic parameters: KM=170 uM for olmesartan medoxomil; KM=283 uM for faropenem medoxomil; KM=63.4 uM for lenampicillin; Vmax=24.6 nmol/min/mg enzyme toward olmesartan medoxomil; Vmax=16.4 nmol/min/mg enzyme toward faropenem medoxomil; Vmax=4 nmol/min/mg enzyme toward lenampicillin; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm, cytosol. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed, with highest levels in liver, followed by kidney, small intestine and colon. Present in liver and intestine (at protein level). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the dienelactone hydrolase family.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
