Molecular and biochemical characterizations of the monoacylglycerol lipase gene family of Arabidopsis thaliana

Abstract: SUMMARYMonoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) catalyzes the last step of triacylglycerol breakdown, which is the hydrolysis of monoacylglycerol (MAG) to fatty acid and glycerol. Arabidopsis harbors over 270 genes annotated as 'lipase', the largest class of acyl lipid metabolism genes that have not been characterized experimentally. In this study, computational modeling suggested that 16 Arabidopsis putative MAGLs (AtMAGLs) have a three-dimensional structure that is similar to a human MAGL. Heterologous expression and … Show more

“…Then, the new ester between the serine and the FA is hydrolyzed. Examples for characterized GXSXG-lipases in Arabidopsis are the MAG and 1,3-DAG lipase AtDESL (Kim et al, 2011), and a number of MAG lipases (Kim et al, 2016).…”

“…Instead, soluble MAGL might have contributed to the hydrolysis activity of NBD‐MAG in the present study. Some of the MAGL displayed hydrolysis activity with lysoPtdCho and lysophosphatidylethanolamine (lysoPtdEtn) in plant, Arabidopsis thaliana (Kim, Kim, Shim, & Suh, ). However, MAGL purified from adipose tissue of rat did not show any lysophospholipase activity for lysoPtdCho (Tornqvist & Belfrage, ).…”

“…Complete liberation of two fatty acids from the diacylglycerol moiety requires diacylglycerol lipase and monoacylglycerol lipase. The monoacylglycerol lipase was identified recently as MAGL8 (Kim et al, 2016b). The diacylglycerol lipase remains to be identified.…”
