Preferred Label : Fatty acid amide hydrolase;

Symbol : FAAH;

CISMeF acronym : FAAH;

Type : Gene;

Description : Fatty acid hydrolase (FAAH) is a membrane-associated serine hydrolase enriched in brain and liver. FAAH hydrolyzes endogenous bioactive fatty acid amides including as anandamide and oleamide, thus terminating their activity (Cravatt et al., 2001).;
