The dimensions of the large hydrophobic pocket (H(L)) of the active site model of pig liver esterase (PLE) were probed using a series of aliphatic and phenylic malonates. Results from the hydrolyses of these new unnatural substrates permitted the extension of the H(L) pocket to give the new dimensions of 6.2 x 2.3 x 3.9 angstrom for a total volume of approximately 56 angstrom3.
