| + | '''Cocaine esterase''' (CocE) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the benzoyl ester of cocaine to ecgonine methyl ester and benzoic acid. CocE is produced by bacteria which thrive in soil of cocaine-producing plants. These bacteria use cocaine as their sole source of carbon and nitrogen. <ref>PMID:11742345</ref> | ||

| + | |||
| + | CocE is being investigated as a possible therapeutic agent for treatment of cocaine abuse. | ||

| + | CocE contains 3 domains. <scene name='48/489298/Cv/10'>Domain 1</scene> contains the catalytic triad: Ser, Asp and His typical of the hydrolase family. <scene name='48/489298/Cv/11'>Domains 2 and 3</scene> are involved in substrate recognition. <scene name='48/489298/Cv/12'>The active site</scene> is located at a cleft in the interface of the 3 domains and contains the <scene name='48/489298/Cv/13'>catalytic triad Ser-Asp-His</scene>. | ||
