MGPD IDMGP004514
Gene ID11343
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namemonoglyceride lipase
Gene Symbol MGLL
SynonymsMGL; HUK5; MAGL; HU-K5;
Alternate namesmonoglyceride lipase; lysophospholipase homolog; monoacylglycerol lipase;
Chromosome3
Map Location3q21.3
EC Number3.1.1.23
SummaryThis 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.
