Application

Application Comment Organism
drug development structure of MAGL paves the way for future medicinal chemistry works aimed at the design of new drugs exploiting 2-arachidonoylglycerol transmission. MAGL is a hot therapeutic target, because the design of selective and potent inhibitors can provide unique tools to interfere with 2-arachidonoylglycerol degradation and to finely modulate the endocannabinoid signal Homo sapiens

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
wild-type and mutants expressed in the Escherichia coli Rosetta strain Homo sapiens

Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
by the hanging drop method and under oil crystallization, native enzyme or selenomethionyl derivative, at 2.2 A resolution. Belongs to I222 space group, with two molecules per asymmetric unit. Docking of 2-arachidonoylglycerol highlights a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic cavity that accommodate the lipid into the catalytic site Homo sapiens

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
C201A substantial decrease in the inhibitory potential Homo sapiens
C201A/C208A/C242A no significant inhibition by N-arachidonylmaleimide Homo sapiens
C208A increase in the inhibiting power of N-arachidonylmaleimide Homo sapiens
C208A/C242A increase in the inhibiting power of N-arachidonylmaleimide Homo sapiens
C242A very slight decrease in N-arachidonylmaleimide inhibitory potency Homo sapiens

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
JZL184 is more potent than LY2183240. The p-nitrophenyl group fits better in the MAGL cavity than the corresponding substituent of LY2183240 Homo sapiens
LY2183240 is less potent than JZL184 Homo sapiens
N-arachidonylmaleimide Cys201 is the crucial residue in MAGL inhibition by N-arachidonylmaleimide Homo sapiens
