Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
alpha/beta-Hydrolase domain containing 6 (ABHD6 ), also known as monoacylglycerol lipase ABHD6 or 2-arachidonoylglycerol hydrolase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ABHD6
gene .
Function
ABHD6 is a serine hydrolyzing enzyme that possesses typical
α/β-hydrolase family domains. ABHD6 was first studied because of its over-expression in certain forms of
tumours .
[5]
ABHD6 has been linked to regulation of the
endocannabinoid system as it controls the accumulation of
2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) at the
cannabinoid receptors .
[6]
ABHD6 accounts for about 4% of 2-AG brain
hydrolysis .
[7] Together,
monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL),
ABHD12 , and ABHD6 control about 99% of 2-AG signalling in the brain,
[7]
[8] and each enzyme exhibits a distinct
subcellular distribution, suggesting that they regulate distinct pools of 2-AG in the
nervous system .
