  <name>Esterase</name>
  <description>Esterase belongs to alkaloids and derivatives class of compounds. Those are naturally occurring chemical compounds that contain mostly basic nitrogen atoms. This group also includes some related compounds with neutral and even weakly acidic propertiesand is also some synthetic compounds of similar structure are attributed to alkaloids. In addition to carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen, alkaloids may also contain oxygen, sulfur and more rarely other elements such as chlorine, bromine, and phosphorus. Esterase can be found in a number of food items such as fig, cabbage, wild leek, and white cabbage, which makes esterase a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. A wide range of different esterases exist that differ in their substrate specificity, their protein structure, and their biological function .</description>
