Homo sapiens (Human) abhydrolase domain-containing protein 4 FLJ12816 similar to 2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde hydrolase (EC 3.1.1.-)
selectively hydrolyzes N-acyl phosphatidylethanolamines NAPEs and lysoNAPE to N-Acyl ethanolamines (NAEs) Simon et al .2006>. Alternative splicing: ABHD4-1 localizes to lipid droplets, whereas ABHD4-2 selectively targets mitochondria and is enriched in oxidative tissues. ABHD4-2 localize to the cytosolic face of the OMM (outer mitochondrial membrane). ABHD4-2 selectively hydrolyzes Cardiolipin (CL) in vitro, producing monolysocardiolipin (MLCL) and dilysocardiolipin (DLCL) (Narayanasamy et al. 2026)
