CAZypedia needs your help! We have many unassigned GH, PL, CE, AA, GT, and CBM pages in need of Authors and Responsible Curators.
Scientists at all career stages, including students, are welcome to contribute to CAZypedia. Read more here, and in the 10th anniversary article in Glycobiology.

Substrate specificities
Carbohydrate esterase family 1 (CE1) is one of the biggest and most diverse CE families including acetylxylan esterases (EC 3.1.1.72), feruloyl esterases (EC 3.1.1.73), cinnamoyl esterases (EC 3.1.1-), carboxylesterases (EC 3.1.1.1), S-formylglutathione hydrolases (EC3.1.2.12), diacylglycerol O-acyltransferases (EC2.3.1.20), and thehalose 6-O-mycolyltransferases (EC 2.3.1.122) and others [1]
Content is to be added here. Authors may get an idea of what to put in each field from Curator Approved Glycoside Hydrolase Families. (TIP: Right click with your mouse and open this link in a new browser window...)
