Supplementary information

Monoacylglycerol lipase (MGL) also known as MAGL or lipase 63 is an enzyme with a mass of approximately 33 kDa. MGL primarily functions in lipid metabolism by hydrolyzing 2-monoacylglycerol (2-MAG) into free fatty acids and glycerol. This enzyme is expressed in many tissues with high expression in the brain liver and adipose tissue. Its activity plays a significant role in the breakdown of monoacylglycerol an important intermediate in the endocannabinoid signaling system.
Biological function summary

MGL contributes to the regulation of energy homeostasis by controlling the levels of 2-monoacylglycerol. It catalyzes the final step in the degradation of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) which is important for modulating inflammation pain and mood. MGL is not known to be part of a larger protein complex. In the brain its action helps terminate endocannabinoid signaling therefore influencing neurotransmission and synaptic plasticity.

Pathways

MGL plays a critical role in the endocannabinoid and glycerolipid metabolism pathways. In the endocannabinoid system it interacts with the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 by regulating 2-AG levels. The protein's role in glycerolipid metabolism involves its interaction with long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase and fatty acid oxidation pathways which are essential for maintaining lipid balance and cellular energy.

MGL has been linked to neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. In neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s dysregulation of MGL activity may lead to altered endocannabinoid signaling impacting neuronal health. In cancer increased MGL activity can promote tumor progression by providing cancer cells with fatty acids for growth and survival. MGL's interaction with proteins such as fatty acid synthase highlights its importance in cancer metabolism.

Target data

Converts monoacylglycerides to free fatty acids and glycerol (PubMed : 19029917, PubMed : 20079333, PubMed : 21049984, PubMed : 22969151, PubMed : 24368842). Hydrolyzes the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol, and thereby contributes to the regulation of endocannabinoid signaling, nociperception and perception of pain (PubMed : 19029917, PubMed : 20079333, PubMed : 21049984, PubMed : 22969151, PubMed : 24368842). Regulates the levels of fatty acids that serve as signaling molecules and promote cancer cell migration, invasion and tumor growth (PubMed : 20079333).
