Anandamide Transport by Plasma Membrane-Associated FAAH (Model 1). This model of transport requires fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH, red) alone to bind anandamide from the extracellular space
directly. The curved black arrow represents FAAH-mediated hydrolysis of anandamide into ethanolamine and arachidonic acid.
