Function | Progesterone-dependent acylglycerol lipase that catalyzes hydrolysis of endocannabinoid arachidonoylglycerol (AG) from cell membrane (PubMed:26989199). Acts as a progesterone receptor: progesterone-binding activates the acylglycerol lipase activity, mediating degradation of 1-arachidonoylglycerol (1AG) and 2- arachidonoylglycerol (2AG) to glycerol and arachidonic acid (AA) (PubMed:26989199). Also displays an ester hydrolase activity against acetyl ester, butanoate ester and hexadecanoate ester (PubMed:27247428). Plays a key role in sperm capacitation in response to progesterone by mediating degradation of 2AG, an inhibitor of the sperm calcium channel CatSper, leading to calcium influx via CatSper and sperm activation (PubMed:26989199). May also play a role in smooth muscle cells migration (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cell projection, cilium, flagellum membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Present in sperm (at protein level). |

Background
This gene encodes a protein containing an alpha/beta hydrolase fold, which is a catalytic domain found in a very wide range of enzymes. The function of this protein has not been determined. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants encoding the same protein. [provided by RefSeq].
