Biphenyl Hydrolase-Like Protein Definition

Encoded by human BPHL Gene (Serine Hydrolase Family), 274-amino acid 30 kD Biphenyl Hydrolase-Related Protein, with structural similarity to enzymes involved in degradation of aromatic compounds, has a putative role in detoxification processes. Highest expression occurs in liver and kidney. Serine hydrolases contain serine in their active site and are grouped into subfamilies in terms of substrate specificity or amino acid sequence. (from Swiss-Prot Q00306, OMIM 603156, and NCI)
