General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Degrades bioactive fatty acid amides to their corresponding acids, thereby serving to terminate the signaling functions of these molecules. Converts N-actylethanolamine (NAE) to ethanolamine. Can also use oleamide or 2-arachidonylglycerol as substrates, but not indole-3-acetamide, 1-naphtalene-acetamide, nicotinic acid amide or L-asparagine. Might be involved in abscisic acid signaling and plant defense through distinctly different mechanisms not involving the catalytic activity. Ref.2 Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.10 |
| Catalytic activity | Anandamide + H2O = arachidonic acid + ethanolamine. Ref.2 Ref.7 |
| Enzyme regulation | Inhibited by methylarachidonyl fluorophosphonate (MAFP). Ref.2 |
| Subcellular location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass membrane protein Potential. Cell membrane; Single-pass membrane protein Potential Ref.9. |
| Tissue specificity | Expressed in seedlings, flowers, roots, siliques, seeds and leaves. Lower levels in stems. Ref.7 Ref.8 |
| Developmental stage | Up-regulated during seed germination and early postgerminative seedling growth. Ref.8 |
| Disruption phenotype | No visible phenotype and enhanced sensitivity to growth inhibition induced by exogenous N-actylethanolamine. Ref.8 |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the amidase family. |
| Biophysicochemical properties | Kinetic parameters: KM=13.6 µM for N-actylethanolamine 20:4 Ref.2 KM=26.2 µM for N-actylethanolamine 18:2 KM=50.8 µM for N-actylethanolamine 16:0 KM=37.0 µM for N-actylethanolamine 14:0 KM=17.6 µM for N-actylethanolamine 12:0 Vmax=17.9 µmol/h/mg enzyme with N-actylethanolamine 20:4 as substrate Vmax=14.1 µmol/h/mg enzyme with N-actylethanolamine 18:2 as substrate Vmax=12.1 µmol/h/mg enzyme with N-actylethanolamine 16:0 as substrate Vmax=9.1 µmol/h/mg enzyme with N-actylethanolamine 14:0 as substrate Vmax=13.9 µmol/h/mg enzyme with N-actylethanolamine 12:0 as substrate |
| Sequence caution | The sequence AAL09742.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Frameshift at position 148. |
