AC_NAAA This conserved domain includes two closely related proteins, acid ceramidase (AC, also known as N-acylsphingosine amidohydrolase), and N-acylethanolamine-hydrolyzing acid amidase (NAAA). AC catalyzes the hydrolysis of ceramide to sphingosine and fatty acid. Ceramide is required for the biosynthesis of most sphingolipids and plays an important role in many signal transduction pathways by inducing apoptosis and/or arresting cell growth. An inherited deficiency of AC activity leads to the lysosomal storage disorder known as Farber disease. AC is considered a "rheostat" important for maintaining the proper intracellular levels of these lipids since hydrolysis of ceramide is the only source of sphingosine in cells. NAAA is a eukaryotic glycoprotein that hydrolyzes bioactive N-acylethanolamines, including anandamide (an endocannabinoid) and N-palmitoylethanolamine (an anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective substance), to fatty acids and ethanolamine at acidic pH. NAAA shows structural and functional similarity to acid ceramidase, but lacks the ceramide-hydrolyzing activity of AC.

C45 family autoproteolytic acyltransferase/hydolase; Members of this family include hydrolases and N-acyltransferases, and belong to the Ntn (N-terminal nucleophile) hydrolase family. Members have an invariant Cys residue (Cys-103 in XP_002569112.1) required both for autoproteolytic processing into alpha and beta chains and for activity. The family is described by MEROPs as a cysteine protease, family C45, because of its autoproteolytic activity. Characterized members include TAN from Drosophila, which removes beta-alanine from both carcinine and N-beta-alanyl dopamine, and isopenicillin-N N-acyltransferase from various fungi. The latter has been heavily studied because of its role in penicillin biosynthesis.

Penicillin V acylase (PVA), also known as conjugated bile salt acid hydrolase (CBAH), catalyzes the hydrolysis of penicillin V to yield 6-amino penicillanic acid (6-APA), an important key intermediate of semisynthetic penicillins. PVA has an N-terminal nucleophilic cysteine, as do other members of the Ntn hydrolase family to which PVA belongs. This nucleophilic cysteine is exposed by post-translational prossessing of the PVA precursor. PVA forms a homotetramer.
