ENZYME entry: EC 3.1.1.88

Accepted Name
pyrethroid hydrolase
Alternative Name(s)
permethrinase
pyrethroid-cleaving enzyme
pyrethroid-hydrolyzing carboxylesterase
pyrethroid-hydrolyzing esterase
pyrethroid-selective esterase
Reaction catalysed
(-)-trans-permethrin + H2O <=> (1S,3R)-3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate + (3-phenoxyphenyl)methanol + H(+)
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme is involved in degradation of pyrethroid pesticides.
  • The enzymes from Sphingobium sp., Klebsiella sp. and Aspergillus niger hydrolyze cis-permethrin at approximately equal rate to trans- permethrin.
  • The enzyme from mouse hydrolyzes trans-permethrin at a rate about 22-fold higher than cis-permethrin.
