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 |

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 |
