Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 8824
Gene name Carboxylesterase 2
Gene symbol CES2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CE-2CES2A1PCE-2iCE
Chromosome 16
Chromosome location 16q22.1
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
