Structure-guided inhibitor design for human FAAH by interspecies active site conversion [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
The integral membrane enzyme fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) hydrolyzes the endocannabinoid anandamide and related amidated signaling lipids. Genetic or pharmacological inactivation of FAAH produces analgesic, anxiolytic, and antiinflammatory phenotypes but not the undesirable side effects of direct cannabinoid receptor agonists ...
