A number of soluble engineered forms of MGLL that are suitable for high- throughput screening and protein crys-tallization, as well as a crystallized form of monoacylglycerol lipase protein (MGLL) and descriptions of the X-ray diffraction pat-terns are disclosed. The engineered constructs of MGLL permit the expression and purification of protein suitable for crystallogra-phy or high-throughput screening and identification of ligands, which can function as active agents to MGLL. The X-ray diffrac-tion patterns allow the three dimensional structure of MGLL to be determined at atomic resolution so that ligand binding sites on MGLL can be identified and the interactions of ligands with MGLL amino acid residues can be modeled. Models prepared using such maps permit the design of ligands which can function as active agents which include, but are not limited to, those that func-tion as inhibitors of MGLL.

La présente invention concerne un certain nombre de formes créées solubles de la MGLL qui sont appropriées pour un criblage à débit élevé et la cristallisation de la protéine, ainsi quune forme cristallisée de la protéine de monoacylglycérol lipase (MGLL) et des descriptions des profils de diffraction des rayons X. Les produits de construction créés de la MGLL permettent lexpression et la purification de la protéine appropriée pour la cristallographie ou le criblage à débit élevé et lidentification de ligands qui peuvent fonctionner en tant quagents actifs envers la MGLL. Les profils de diffraction des rayons X permettent de déterminer la structure tridimensionnelle de la MGLL à une résolution atomique de manière à pouvoir identifier des sites de liaison de ligands sur la MGLL et modeler les interactions des ligands avec les résidus dacides aminés de la MGLL. Les modèles préparés en utilisant de telles cartes permettent la conception de ligands qui peuvent fonctionner en tant quagents actifs qui comprennent, sans limitation, ceux qui fonctionnent en tant quinhibiteurs de la MGLL.
