Metabolite Identification
Common NameN-Arachidonoyl glycine
DescriptionN-Arachidonoylglycine, also known as nagly or ema-1 20:4, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as n-acyl-alpha amino acids. N-acyl-alpha amino acids are compounds containing an alpha amino acid which bears an acyl group at its terminal nitrogen atom. Thus, N-arachidonoylglycine is considered to be a fatty amide lipid molecule. N-Arachidonoylglycine is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
