Six carboxylesterase isozymes (viz. ES-1, ES-6, ES-9, ES-20, ES 22 and ES-24), governed by esterase gene cluster 1 on chromosome 8 of the house mouse, were identified electrophoretically in liver supernatants using their biochemical, genetic and developmental characteristics. ES-1 and ES-20 were expressed as liver-specific forms. The peri- and postnatal development of the 6 isozymes indicated that they were individually regulated at the genetic level, although the isozymes were regulated as a group when compared to genetically unrelated esterases. The concept of evolutionary divergence following repeated gene duplication of an ancestral esterase structural gene was extended to cover divergence of the temporal (regulatory) genes associated with the multigene family. Allelic variation of the temporal genes was more limited than that of the corresponding structural genes.
