    Summary
    This gene encodes a monoglyceride lipase, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of monoglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol. This enzyme is also thought to hydrolyze the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

      Status: REVIEWED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (3) differs in the 5' UTR, lacks a portion of the 5' coding region, initiates translation at a downstream start codon, and uses an alternate in-frame splice site in the 3' coding region compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (c) is shorter than isoform a.
