Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 221223
Gene name Carboxylesterase 5A
Gene symbol CES5A
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CAUXINCES4C1CES5CES7HEL126
Chromosome 16
Chromosome location 16q12.2
Summary This gene encodes a member of the carboxylesterase large family. The family members are responsible for the hydrolysis or transesterification of various xenobiotics, such as cocaine and heroin, and endogenous substrates with ester, thioester, or amide bon
