N-acylethanolamine-hydrolyzing acid amidase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the NAAA gene.[1][2][3]

This gene encodes an N-acylethanolamine-hydrolyzing enzyme which is highly similar to acid ceramidase. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[3]
