Several different arachidonoyl amino acid conjugates, including N-arachidonoyl dopamine and N-arachidonoyl-L-serine, have been isolated and characterized from bovine brain.{9589} N-lignoceroyl taurine is one of several novel taurine-conjugated fatty acids discovered during mass spectrometry lipidomic analysis of brain and spinal cord from wild-type and fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) knockout mice.{13153} The levels of N-lignoceroyl taurine were elevated 23-26 fold in FAAH-/- mice compared to wild-type mice, indicating that FAAH utilizes N-lignoceroyl taurine as a substrate. However, in vitro experiments with purified FAAH indicate N-lignoceroyl taurine is hydrolyzed 2,000 times more slowly by FAAH compared to oleoyl ethanolamide.{13153} N-acyl taurines bearing polyunsaturated acyl chains can activate members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of calcium channels, including TRPV1 and TRPV4.{16245}
