Function: Hydrolyzes the toxic metabolites of a variety of organophosphorus insecticides. Capable of hydrolyzing a broad spectrum of organophosphate substrates and lactones, and a number of aromatic carboxylic acid esters. Mediates an enzymatic protection of low density lipoproteins against oxidative modification and the consequent series of events leading to atheroma formation.
Catalytic activity: A phenyl acetate + H(2)O = a phenol + acetate. An aryl dialkyl phosphate + H(2)O = dialkyl phosphate + an aryl alcohol. An N-acyl-L-homoserine lactone + H(2)O = an N- acyl-L-homoserine.
Disease:
Cellular location: Secreted, extracellular space.
Tissue specificity: Plasma, associated with HDL (at protein level). Expressed in liver, but not in heart, brain, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, kidney or pancreas.

Genetic variants

The allelic form of the enzyme with Gln-192 (allozyme A) hydrolyzes paraoxon with a low turnover number and the one with Arg-192 (allozyme B) with a high turnover number.
