Alpha-Ketoheterocycle Inhibitors of Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase Containing Additional Conformational Contraints in the Acyl Side Chain
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 21428410
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).
