••
TL;DR: A soluble enzyme with carbonic anhydrase activity was isolated from pea leaves and purified 200-fold by ammonium sulfate fractionation, gel filtration and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and the amino acid composition of the enzyme has been determined.

••
TL;DR: Esterase inhibition assays provide an effect-directed tool of rapid screening for inhibitors in environmental and food samples and were able to detect insecticides of high and low inhibitory power from the ng to microg range per zone.

••
TL;DR: It is reported that in cucumber and melon leaves, both viral infections studied induced C4H mRNA expression, and a similar induction was observed for the first phenylpropanoid biosynthetic enzyme, phyenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), and for chitinase and peroxidase defence-related genes.

••
TL;DR: The glyphosate-degrading bacterium, Burkholderia caryophilli PG2982, was observed to utilize glyceryl glyphosate as a sole phosphorus source, providing the first biological role for a phosphonate ester hydrolase activity.

••
TL;DR: The behavior of the esterase/pesticide systems, and the analytical possibilities arising from the inhibiting action exerted by pesticides on esterases were examined and a biosensor for the determination of pesticides did finally result.
