basic FUNCTION
| providing a link between phosphoinositide metabolism and G protein signal transduction |
|
catalyzes the hydrolysis of deacylated glycerophospholipids to glycerol phosphate and alcohol (Bachmann 2006) |
|
mediate glycerophosphoinositol catabolism, leading to different products, potentially reflecting the specific function(s) of glycerophosphoinositol in a given cell system/tissue (Corda 2009) |
|
may be involved in the biosynthesis of anandamide (N-arachidonoyl ethanolamine), an endogenous ligand for the brain cannabinoid receptor (Corda 2009) |
|
GDE1 plays an important role in linking phosphoinositide metabolism with G protein signal transduction and catalyzes anandamide biosynthesis from glycerophophspho-N-arachidonoylethanolamine precursor |
