The esterase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Archaeoglobus fulgidus is a monomeric protein with a molecular weight of about 35.5 kDa. The enzyme is barely active at room temperature, displaying the maximal enzyme activity at about 80ยฐC. We have investigated the effect of the temperature on the p
