Zusammenfassung: <jats:title>Summary</jats:title><jats:p>Esterase-27A (ES-27A) was characterized in strain A/WySnA by a cascade of seven bands seen after disc electrophoresis of serum and subsequent staining for esterase. ES-27A catalyses the hydrolysis of thiocholine butyrate and is strongly inhibited by 100 μ<jats:sc>m</jats:sc> tetraisopropyl pyrophosphamide (isoOMPA). Hence, the enzyme was concluded to be a cholinesterase EC 3.1.1.8. A heat-labile form termed ES-27B was represented by strain AKR/Han. From a three-point cross (AKR/Han, A/Wy) and a five-point cross (AKR/Han, SEG/1), the gene order on chromosome 3 was concluded to be centromere–<jats:italic>Car-2–Es-26–Es-27–Amy-1–Adh-1</jats:italic>.</jats:p>
