Biological Properties
General Functiontriglyceride metabolic process
Specific FunctionConverts monoacylglycerides (MAG) to free fatty acids and glycerol. Required for efficient degradation of MAG, short-lived intermediates of glycerolipid metabolism which may also function as lipid signaling molecules. Controls inactivation of the signaling lipid N-palmitoylethanolamine (PEA).
