FAMILY
  • family of metabolic serine hydrolases
  • ABHD superfamily of proteins that share an alph/beta-hydrolase fold
  • CATEGORY immunity/defense
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     plasma membrane
    basic FUNCTION
  • supposed to be involved in some aspects of immunity
  • is a genuine lipase with preference for long-chain unsaturated monoacylglycerols (MAGs)
  • has acylglycerol monoacylglycerols (MAGs) lipase and phosphatidylserine lipase activities
  • metabolic serine hydrolases ABHD16A and ABHD12 are major lipases that biosynthesize and degrade Lysophosphatidylserine (lyso-PS), respectively in the brain
  • pophosphatidylserine lipase ABHD16A is an endoplasmic reticulum-localized enzyme, an organelle intricately regulating cellular PS levels

    small molecule
    protein
  • IFITM3 interacts with ABHD16A, following which it can better inhibit the replication of influenza virus and the inflammatory response caused by the disease process
