Abhd12 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables lysophospholipase activity; monoacylglycerol lipase activity; and palmitoyl-(protein) hydrolase activity. Involved in lipid catabolic process; protein depalmitoylation; and regulation of inflammatory response. Acts upstream of or within adult walking behavior; phosphatidylserine catabolic process; and response to auditory stimulus. Located in dendrite cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Part of AMPA glutamate receptor complex. Used to study PHARC syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in PHARC syndrome. Orthologous to human ABHD12 (abhydrolase domain containing 12, lysophospholipase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

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 Abhd12 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
