The esterase form Micrococcus sp., which hydrolyzes n-propyl-2-fluorocyclopropanecarboxylate (3) enantioselectively, was highly purified by three types of chromatography. The purified enzyme was inactivated by Hg and diisopropyl fluorophosphate (DFP). It was a monomer with a molecular weight of about 35000. The enzyme exhibits esterase activity towards many aliphatic propyl esters. The enantioselectivity for substrate (3) using purified enzyme did not differ from that of crude enzyme.

丙酯(DFP)灭活。它是一种分子量约为 35000 的单体。该酶对许多脂肪族丙基酯具有
酯酶活性。纯化酶对底物(3)的对映选择性与粗酶没有差别。
