Abstract
The protein Yju3p is the orthologue of monoglyceride lipases in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A soluble variant of this lipase termed s-Yju3p (38.3 kDa) was generated and purified to homogeneity by affinity and size-exclusion chromatography. s-Yju3p was crystallized in a vapour-diffusion setup at 293 K and a complete data set was collected to 2.4 Å resolution. The crystal form was orthorhombic (space group P212121), with unit-cell parameters a = 77.2, b = 108.6, c = 167.7 Å. The asymmetric unit contained four molecules with a solvent content of 46.4%.

Abstract
Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) is a key enzyme responsible for the termination of endocannabinoid signaling. Its crucial role in 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) metabolism, together with the numerous pharmacological properties mediated by this endocannabinoid, emphasize the interest in MAGL as therapeutic target, along with the need to design potent and selective inhibitors. Meanwhile, the complexity of 2-AG degradation pathways underscores the need to use a purified source of enzyme in evaluation studies of new inhibitors. We report here the first heterologous expression and purification of human MAGL. A highly pure protein was obtained and allowed us to measure the affinity of several MAGL inhibitors for the human enzyme. Importantly, disulfiram (tetraethylthiuram disulfide), a compound used to treat alcoholism, and other disulfide-containing compounds were shown to inhibit MAGL with good potency, likely through an interaction with cysteine residues.

Abstract
Monoglyceride lipase (MGL) has been produced with the baculovirus-insect cell system. The mouse MGL cDNA was subcloned into a baculovirus transfer vector in frame with a sequence encoding an N-terminal stretch of six histidine residues. Purification to apparent homogeneity was obtained by nickel-chelating chromatography. The final yield was 3 mg of pure enzymatically active MGL per liter of Sf9 cell suspension culture. Analysis by SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry showed that the recombinant histidine-tagged enzyme had the expected molecular mass. With monoolein as substrate, the specific activity and the apparent K(m) were close to those of rat MGL of adipose tissue.

Abstract
A thermostable monoacylglycerol lipase [MGLP, EC 3.1.1.23] was purified for the first time from a cell-free extract of the moderately thermophilic Bacillus sp. H-257. The enzyme was purified 3,028-fold to homogeneity by chromatography using Octyl-Sepharose CL-4B, Q-Sepharose FF, and Superose 12 columns. The molecular mass of the MGLP was estimated to be 25 kDa by gel filtration and 24 kDa by SDS-PAGE, suggesting a monomeric protein. The isoelectric point was determined to be 4.66 by isoelectric focusing. The MGLP retained its full activity upon incubation at 60 degrees C for 10 min (pH 7. 3), and was stable at pH 7-10. The optimal temperature for activity at pH 7.5 was 75 degrees C, and the maximum activity was observed from pH 6-8. This enzyme hydrolyzes monoacylglycerols, with the highest activity occurring with 1-monolauroylglycerol. Di- and triacylglycerols, on the other hand, are essentially inert as substrates for the enzyme. The K(m) values for the hydrolysis of 1-monolauroylglycerol, 1-monooleoylglycerol, and 2-monooleoylglycerol were determined to be 140, 83 and 59 mM, respectively. The enzyme was not inhibited by cholate, but was slightly inhibited by Triton X-100 and deoxycholate. The amino acid sequence of the N-terminal region of the enzyme (16 residues) was also determined.

Abstract
Anandamide and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) are two endogenous ligands for the cannabinoid receptors, and their cannabimimetic activities are lost when they are hydrolyzed enzymatically. Cytosol and particulate fractions of porcine brain exhibited a high 2-AG hydrolyzing activity of 100 nmol/min/mg protein. Most of the activity could be attributed to a monoacylglycerol lipase-like enzyme that did not hydrolyze anandamide. It was separated by hydroxyapatite chromatography from anandamide amidohydrolase, which is also capable of hydrolyzing 2-AG as well as anandamide. Thus, porcine brain has at least two enzymes capable of hydrolyzing 2-AG. The 2-AG hydrolase activities of both the cytosolic and particulate enzymes were irreversibly and time-dependently inhibited by methyl arachidonyl fluorophosphonate with IC50 values as low as 2-3 nM.

Abstract
A glycerol-ester hydrolase was purified to homogeneity from porcine intestinal mucosa using a partial delipidation method and an eight-step purification procedure. The isolation scheme used gave a 483-fold purification, resulting in a pure enzyme with a specific activity on tributyrin of 290 micromol x min(-1) x mg(-1). The molecular mass of the enzyme was estimated at 240 kDa, based on the results of size-exclusion chromatography, and at 60 kDa, as determined by SDS/PAGE analysis. The isoelectric focusing data obtained indicated that only one isoform with a pI of 5.1 was present. Complete identity was found to exist between the N-terminal sequence of the first 25 amino acid residues and that of a porcine liver carboxylesterase. A full-length cDNA coding for the enzyme was isolated from pig small intestine. We observed that the corresponding protein originally named intestinal glycerol-ester hydrolase definitely belongs to the carboxylesterase family. The deduced amino acid sequence consisted of 565 residues and showed 97% identity with that of porcine liver carboxylesterase and more than 50% identity with those of other carboxylesterases from different mammalian species.

Abstract
A membrane-bound monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) activity, previously demonstrated in intact human erythrocytes [Boyer, Somma, Vérine, L'Hôte, Finidori, Merger and Arnaud (1981) J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 53, 143-148], has now been purified to apparent homogeneity by a five-step procedure involving solubilization in CHAPS and sequential chromatographies on Sephacryl S-400, DEAE-Trisacryl, Zn(2+)-chelating Sepharose and Superose 12 columns. The purified protein has a molecular mass of 68 +/- 2 kDa, as determined by SDS/PAGE and gel filtration, suggesting that the enzyme behaves as a monomer. The concentration-dependence of MAGL activity with monooleoylglycerol, the preferred substrate showed kinetics typical of an interfacial lipolytic enzyme displaying optimal activity on emulsified substrate particles; apparent Km values were 0.27 mM and 0.49 mM for the sn-1(3)- and sn-2-isomers respectively. MAGL had no, or negligible, activity towards tri-oleoylglycerol, di-oleoylglycerol, oleoylcholesterol, oleoyl-CoA and phosphatidylcholine; it was inhibited by di-isopropylfluorophosphate, PMSF and diethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate, suggesting that MAGL is a serine hydrolase. MAGL activity was not modified by bile salt or apolipoprotein C-II, whereas a dose-dependent inhibition was observed with apolipoprotein A-I.

Abstract
A new lipase from Penicillium camembertii U-150, which is specific for monoacylglycerols and diacylglycerols, but not triacylglycerols, was purified as four active components using concanavalin-A-Sepharose column chromatography, crystallized in the form of needles, and its properties investigated. No significant difference was observed in substrate specificity, but molecular mass and other enzymatic properties, such as pH, heat stability and optimum pH and temperature, were clearly different between the unadsorbed and the three adsorbed components on concanavalin-A-Sepharose; the three adsorbed components were similar to each other and more stable than the unadsorbed component. On the other hand, after enzymatic removal of carbohydrates from the three adsorbed components, their enzymatic properties became similar to those of the unadsorbed component. The carbohydrates of this lipase contribute to the stability of the enzyme, but not to its enzyme activity. The amino acid compositions of the four components did not differ from each other, and tryptic mapping of the deglycosylated components and amino acid composition of the tryptic fragments were identical. The carbohydrate compositions of four intact components were, however, different from each other. All four components have the same polypeptide backbone and multiple forms of this lipase are due to the differences in composition of the carbohydrates bound in this lipase.

Abstract
Monacylglycerol lipase activity was characterized in a soluble preparation from rabbit aorta (intima-media) obtained by combining a 100,000 x g supernatant fraction with activity solubilized from the 100,000 x g precipitate fraction by treatment with Triton X-100. Rates of hydrolysis with 1-monoolein and 2-monoolein substrates were nearly identical. 1-Monoolein was a competitive inhibitor (Ki 65 microM) of 2-monoolein hydrolysis. 2-Monoolein and 2-monopalmitin were both hydrolyzed more rapidly than 2-monoarachidonin. Lipase activity measured with a 2-monoolein substrate was inhibited by the addition of oleate, NaF and CaCl2 to the assay. Preincubation of the lipase preparation with p-bromophenacyl bromide resulted in a potent inhibition of lipase activity; this inhibition could be prevented by dithiothreitol.

Abstract
The lipolytic activities of heart tissue towards full and partial acylglycerols were characterized. Tissue lysosomal, acid lipase activity (pH 4.8) was inhibited by high salt, protamine sulfate, NaF, MgATP, Triton X-100, serum and the esterase-inhibitor diethylparanitrophenyl phosphate. The tissue neutral triacylglycerol lipase activity (pH 7.4) was recovered predominantly in the microsomal and soluble fractions and exhibited essentially identical properties towards activators (serum, apolipoprotein C-II) and reagents (NaCl, Triton X-100, NaF, MgATP and diethylparanitrophenyl phosphate) relative to vascular lipoprotein lipase, except for protamine sulfate which increased the serum-stimulated neutral triacylglycerol lipase activity. Triacylglycerol hydrolysis at acid pH was incomplete, whereas at neutral pH full hydrolysis occurred. Myocardial mono- and diacylglycerol lipase activities, with pH optima of 8.0 and 7.4, respectively, were recovered in the microsomal fraction. They differed immunologically from neutral lipase and lipoprotein lipase and did not bind to heparin-Sepharose 4B. They were kinetically different, partially inhibited by NaCl and differentially affected by protamine sulfate. NaF, Triton X-100 and diethylparanitrophenyl phosphate. Our data suggest that endogenous hydrolytic activity against full and partial acylglycerols is mediated by separate enzymes.

Abstract
Two purified carboxylesterases that were isolated from a rat liver microsomal fraction in a Norwegian and a German laboratory were compared. The Norwegian enzyme preparation was classified as palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase (EC 3.1.2.2) in many earlier papers, whereas the German preparation was termed monoacylglycerol lipase (EC 3.1.1.23) or esterase pI 6.2/6.4 (non-specific carboxylesterase, EC 3.1.1.1). Antisera against the two purified enzyme preparations were cross-reactive. The two proteins co-migrate in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. Both enzymes exhibit identical inhibition characteristics with Mg2+, Ca2+ and bis-(4-nitrophenyl) phosphate if assayed with the two substrates palmitoyl-CoA and phenyl butyrate. It is concluded that the two esterase preparations are identical. However, immunoprecipitation and inhibition experiments confirm that this microsomal lipase differs from the palmitoyl-CoA hydrolases of rat liver cytosol and mitochondria.

Abstract
The subcellular distribution of diacylglycerol- and monoacylglycerol-lipases has been studied in human platelets. Using a fractionation procedure on Percoll gradient (Perret, B., Chap, H. and Douste-Blazy, L. (1979) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 556, 434-446), the enzyme activity displayed the same profile as that of [3H]concanavalin A, a plasma membrane marker. This result was confirmed with highly purified platelet plasma membranes prepared by adsorption onto polyethylenimine-bonded polyacrylamide beads (Kinoshita, T., Nachman, R.L. and Minick, R. (1979) J. Cell Biol. 82, 688-696). Studies with isolated membranes or crude homogenate revealed that the enzyme requires calcium or magnesium and displays an optimal pH of 6.2, showing that it is able to hydrolyse diacylglycerol under conditions where phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C is fully active. Using diacylglycerol labelled in the 1- or 2-position, it was found that the two fatty acids are released at the same rate, which is supported by the lack of monoacylglycerol accumulation and by the observation that monoacylglycerol is hydrolysed at a 20-fold faster rate than diacylglycerol. Increasing concentrations of Mg-ATP promote the conversion of diacylglycerol into phosphatidic acid by diacylglycerol kinase, but only high concentrations become inhibitory for diacylglycerol lipase. These results are discussed in the light of our former hypothesis that arachidonic acid release from platelet phospholipids might occur through the sequential action of a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C coupled to a diacylglycerol lipase (Mauco, G., Chap, H., Simon, M.F. and Douste-Blazy, L. (1978) Biochimie 60, 553-561). The possible role of this enzyme in the regulation of the activity of protein kinase C is also emphasized.

Abstract
Mono- and diacylglycerol lipases are differentially inhibited by heparin. No other glycosaminoglycan resembles heparin in this respect. Mono- and diacylglycerol lipases can be separated by heparin Sepharose affinity chromatography. Diacylglycerol lipase was completely retained on a heparin--Sepharose column and was eluted with either 0.5 M NaCl or 2-5 mg/ml heparin, whereas monoacylglycerol lipase was recovered in the washings. Adenosine phosphates markedly affected the activity of diacylglycerol lipase in a concentration dependent manner. ATP was the most potent inhibitor followed by ADP. AMP had no effect and cAMP slightly stimulated the diacylglycerol lipase.

Abstract
Highly purified rat hepatic lipase (NaCl-resistant, alkaline pH optimum) was studied to evaluate whether the enzyme has triacylglycerol lipase, monoacylglycerol lipase and phospholipase activities. Enzyme exhibiting a single band by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and having a specific activity eight times greater than that in any previous report was utilized. The ratios of the different lipolytic activities to each other remained constant throughout a multistep hepatic lipase purification. The lipolytic activities coeluted by gel filtration on Ultrogel AcA 34. Column isoelectric focusing of the highly purified enzyme revealed comigration of the lipolytic activities. Thermal inactivation produced similar decay curves for the different activities. Immune titration curves for the different activities with specific antibody against hepatic lipase were essentially identical. These findings indicate that hepatic lipase is a single enzyme molecule which has triacyglycerol lipase, monoacylglycerol lipase and phospholipase activities with artificial substrates. To study these lipolytic activities further, purified hepatic lipase was subjected to limited digestion by specific proteases. The triacylglycerol lipase activity was more sensitive to proteolytic destruction than either of the other two activities.

Abstract
Rat plasma contains monoglyceride hydrolase activities against both 1(3)- and 2-monoglycerides. These activities are present as lipoprotein complexes recovered by either density flotation or by agarose gel chromatography with plasma high density lipoprotein. However neither activity is complexed with the major apoproteins (apo-A-I, apo-E) of this lipoprotein class. 2-Monoglyceride hydrolase (but not 1(3)-monoglyceride hydrolase) activity associates with the triglyceride-rich lipoprotein class. The two activities are also noncompetitive with respect to substrate, and differ in pH- and cofactor-dependence and sensitivity to inhibition by diethyl p-nitrophenyl phosphate. Rat platelets also contain both 1(3)- and 2-monoglyceride hydrolase activities. These differ in reactivity with antiesterase and after solubilization and electrophoretic migration with each other and with the corresponding plasma activities. Studies with the isolated perfused rat heart suggest that a major role in the catabolism of 2-monoglyceride generated from lipoprotein lipase activity at the coronary bed is played by the plasma 2-monoglyceride hydrolase activity.

Abstract
A lipolytic enzyme which hydrolyzed monoacylglycerols more easily than triacylglycerols was found in the culture broth of Penicillium cyclopium M1. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity and its properties were investigated. Among various substrates used, monoacylglycerols, especially those of medium chain fatty acids, were hydrolyzed very rapidly. Although the rate was low, the enzyme hydrolyzed methyl esters of fatty acids, Span or triacylglycerols of medium chain fatty acids. Based on its substrate specificity, the enzyme was regarded as a partial glyceride hydrolase. When the partial glyceride hydrolase was used in conjunction with lipase on triacylglycerol, the degree of hydrolysis of triacylglycerol became extremely high.

Abstract
In intestinal epithelial cells, three enzymes possessing monoacylglycerol hydrolase activity were found and partially purified. Two of these enzymes have properties that justify their classification as an esterase and one as a monoacylglycerol lipase. The three enzymes show similar Km values for monooleoylglycerol and each shows similar activity towards 1- and 2-monopalmitoylglycerol. Antiserum raised in rabbits against rat liver monoacylglycerol lipase inhibits the intestinal lipase completely, suggesting that the enzymes are at least partially similar. The esterases of small intestinal villus cells were not inhibited by the antiserum against liver monoacylglycerol lipase. It was calculated that the esterases account for approx. 2/3 of the monooleoylglycerol hydrolase activity in epithelial cells. Monoacylglycerol lipase also hydrolyzed palmitoyl-CoA, while the esterases did not. The enzymes were inhibited by micellar palmitoyl-CoA. The hypothesis that palmitoyl-CoA is an important regulator for monoacylglycerol acylation is discussed in the light of these new findings.

Abstract
A glycerol-ester hydrolase has been characterized and partially purified (23-fold) from human small intestine. A pancreatic origin was excluded through the use of an immunoserum directed against human pancreatic juice, while a pharyngeal (gastric) origin was unlikely owing to the optimum pH range of activity of the gastric enzyme as compared to that of the intestinal enzyme. The glycerol-ester hydrolase is mainly active toward short- and medium-chain di- and triglycerides and toward micellar long-chain monoglycerides. A role in the absorption of neutral lipids, mainly in pathological situations, is postulated.

Abstract
A monoacylglycerol-hydrolyzing enzyme has been purified 2500-fold from rat adipose tissue. The key step was the solubilization of the enzyme, presumably as an enzyme-detergent complex, by sonication with a nonionic polyoxyethylene alcohol detergent. The purification was achieved by ion exchange and gel chromatography, and isoelectric focusing, in the presence of detergent. By sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis the enzyme protein was more than 85% pure. This method indicated a minimum molecular weight of 32,900. The preliminary amino acid composition, excluding tryptophan, could best be fitted with a value of 31,800. The purified enzyme had a pI of 7.2, an estimated Stokes radius of 39 A by gel chromatography and a pH optimum of 8.0. Enzyme stability was highly dependent on presence of detergent and free sulfhydryl groups. The enzyme was responsible for the main monoacylglycerol- but only a small part of the p-nitrophenylacetate-hydrolyzing activity of crude adipose tissue extracts and hydrolyzed 1(3)- and 2-monooleoylglycerol at equal rates. Under the assay conditions used it did not catalyze the hydrolysis of emulsified trioleoylglycerol, micellar or emulsified dioleoylglycerol, emulsified cholesterol oleate or micellar lysophosphatidylcholine. It is possible that the enzyme may be a specific monoacylglycerol hydrolase.
