Diacylglycerol lipase, also known as DAG lipase, DAGL or DGL, is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of the endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol.[1] It catalyzes the hydrolysis of diacylglycerol, releasing a free fatty acid and monoacylglycerol.

Two separate genes encoding DGL enzymes have been cloned, termed DGLα (DAGLA) and DGLβ (DAGLB), that share 33% sequence identity.

Inhibitors

The enzyme has been described to be inhibited selectively by two agents, RHC80267 and tetrahydrolipstatin.
