Carboxylesterase 1F (Ces1f)

Hydrolyzes p-nitrophenyl butyrate (PNPB), triacylglycerol and monoacylglycerol. Shows higher activity against PNPB, a short-chain fatty acid ester, than against triolein, a long-chain fatty acid ester.

Reveals no detectable activity against diacylglycerol, cholesterol ester or phospholipids. May play a role in adipocyte lipolysis.
