Aadac Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables serine hydrolase activity and triacylglycerol lipase activity. Involved in positive regulation of triglyceride catabolic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human AADAC (arylacetamide deacetylase).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Aadac often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
