MGLL - monoglyceride lipase Gene
Also Known as MGL; HUK5; MAGL; HU-K5
Species: Homo sapiens
About MGLL
This gene has 13 transcripts (splice variants) and 209 orthologues. Broad expression in fat (RPKM 103.8), esophagus (RPKM 51.9) and 19 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a serine hydrolase of the AB hydrolase superfamily that catalyzes the conversion of monoacylglycerides to free fatty acids and glycerol. The encoded protein plays a critical role in several physiological processes including pain and nociperception through hydrolysis of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol. Expression of this gene may play a role in Cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene.
