Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nEndogenous cannabinoids have been implicated in addictive behaviors and drug abuse (1). Fatty-acid amide hydrolase 1 (FAAH1) is a plasma membrane-bound hydrolase that converts oleamide to oleic acid (2). This hydrolase also converts the cannabinoid anandamide, the endogenous ligand for the CB1 cannabinoid receptor, to arachidonic acid, suggesting a role in fatty-acid amide inactivation (2). Mice lacking FAAH1 have significantly higher levels of anandamide in the brain and show decreased sensitivity to pain, further indicating a role for FAAH1 in the regulation of endocannabinoid signaling (3). FAAH1 null mice also demonstrate an increased preference for alcohol and an increased voluntary uptake of alcohol as compared to wild-type mice, indicating a role of FAAH1 in modulating addictive behaviors (1).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nAnandamide amidohydrolase 1; FAAH; FAAH-1; FAAH1; fatty acid amide hydrolase; Fatty acid ester hydrolase; Fatty-acid amide hydrolase 1; MGC102823; MGC138146; Oleamide hydrolase 1; PSAB\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 60\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800184901801,"sku":"9179S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-9179s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
