Cloning of rabbit LCAT cDNA: increase in LCAT mRNA abundance in the liver of cholesterol-fed rabbits.

Structure of rabbit lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) and molecular basis for the effects of cholesterol feeding on LCAT expression were investigated by cloning and sequencing LCAT cDNA from rabbit. The rabbit and human sequences are 91% identical at the nucleotide level and 93% identical...
