| Enzyme Function | FUNCTION: Displays esterase activity towards short chain fatty esters (acyl chain length of up to 8 carbons). Able to hydrolyze triacetylglycerol (triacetin) and tributyrylglycerol (tributyrin), but not trioleylglycerol (triolein) or cholesterol oleate. Negatively regulates MalT activity by antagonizing maltotriose binding. Inhibits MelA galactosidase activity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11867639, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12374803, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9576853}. |
