Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: An implementation of the ICFF algorithm is presented, which employs the MMFF94s Cartesian force field as a “source,” and extensive benchmarking of ICFF with a representative set of organic molecules demonstrates that the implicit flexibility model accurately reproduces MMFF 94s equilibrium conformational energy differences and, most importantly, detailed torsion energy profiles.

TL;DR: The structure-guided design of a point mutant in the active site of FAAH that selectively disrupts interactions with NATs is reported, which may serve as a valuable research tool to illuminate the unique roles played by the NAE and NAT classes of signaling lipids in vivo.
Abstract: Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) inactivates a large and diverse class of endogenous signaling lipids termed fatty acid amides. Representative fatty acid amides include the N-acyl ethanolamines (NAEs) anandamide, which serves as an endogenous ligand for cannabinoid receptors, and N-oleoyl and N-palmitoyl ethanolamine, which produce satiety and anti-inflammatory effects, respectively. Global metabolite profiling studies of FAAH (−/−) mice have recently identified a second class of endogenous FAAH substrates: the N-acyl taurines (NATs). To determine the metabolic and signaling functions performed by NAEs and NATs in vivo, a FAAH variant that discriminates between these two substrate classes would be of value. Here, we report the structure-guided design of a point mutant in the active site of FAAH that selectively disrupts interactions with NATs. This glycine-to-aspartate (G268D) mutant was found to exhibit wild-type kinetic parameters with NAEs, but more than a 100-fold reduction in activity with NATs att...

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that AAV-mediated delivery of IGF-1 in CNS did not have any beneficial effect on the clinical course of EAE, and this data have important implications for the potential use of IGF -1 in the treatment of multiple sclerosis.
