Template:STRUCTURE 4j5p

Crystal Structure of a Covalently Bound alpha-Ketoheterocycle Inhibitor (Phenhexyl/Oxadiazole/Pyridine) to a Humanized Variant of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23581831

Function

[FAAH1_RAT] Degrades bioactive fatty acid amides like oleamide, the endogenous cannabinoid, anandamide and myristic amide to their corresponding acids, thereby serving to terminate the signaling functions of these molecules. Hydrolyzes polyunsaturated substrate anandamide preferentially as compared to monounsaturated substrates (By similarity).
