Carboxymethylenebutenolidase homolog, also known as CMBL, is a cysteine hydrolase of the dienelactone hydrolase family that is highly expressed in liver cytosol. CMBL is the human homolog of Pseudomonas dienelactone hydrolase, a protein that participates in the bacterial halocatechol degradation pathway. CMBL is inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoate (PCMB) and is encoded by a gene that maps to human chromosome 5p15.2. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-245 of human CMBL, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli.
