Entry Information
Comments
| Comment Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Catalytic Activity | Hydrolyzes glycerol monoesters of long-chain fatty acids. |
| Function | Converts monoacylglycerides to free fatty acids and glycerol. Hydrolyzes the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol, and thereby contributes to the regulation of endocannabinoid signaling, nociperception and perception of pain. Regulates the levels of fatty acids that serve as signaling molecules and promote cancer cell migration, invasion and tumor growth (By similarity) |
| Miscellaneous | Requires non-ionic detergent for solubilization. |
| Miscellaneous | Short-term inhibition causes analgesia, while long- term inhibition causes tolerance to endocannabinoids acting on brain cannabinoid receptor CNR1, and a reduction in brain cannabinoid receptor CNR1 activity |
| Pathway | Glycerolipid metabolism; triacylglycerol degradation. |
| Similarity | Belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily. Monoacylglycerol lipase family |
| Subunit | Homodimer |
| Tissue Specificity | Ubiquitous. Highly expressed in adipose tissue, adrenal gland, ovary, heart, spleen, lung, skeletal muscle, kidney and testis. Highly expressed throughout the brain |
