Background
The enzyme encoded by this gene is an arylesterase that mainly hydrolyzes paroxon to produce p-nitrophenol. Paroxon is an organophosphorus anticholinesterase compound that is produced in vivo by oxidation of the insecticide parathion. Polymorphisms in this gene are a risk factor in coronary artery disease. The gene is found in a cluster of three related paraoxonase genes at 7q21.3. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:A phenyl acetate + H(2)O = a phenol + acetate.,catalytic activity:An aryl dialkyl phosphate + H(2)O = dialkyl phosphate + an aryl alcohol.,disease:Genetic variation in PON1 is associated with susceptibility to diabetic retinopathy [MIM:612633]; also called microvascular complications of diabetes type 5 (MVCD5). Diabetic retinopathy is a major cause of blindness in diabetic patients. Retinal disease results from adverse effects on the blood vessels which supply the retina.,function:Hydrolyzes the toxic metabolites of a variety of organophosphorus insecticides. Capable of hydrolyzing a broad spectrum of organophosphate substrates and a number of aromatic carboxylic acid esters. May mediate an enzymatic protection of low density lipoproteins against oxidative modification and the consequent series of events leading to atheroma formation.,miscellaneous:The preferential ass
