Control of ACAT2 liver expression by HNF1

ACAT catalyzes the formation of cholesteryl esters from cholesterol and long-chain fatty acids. There are two known genes encoding the two ACAT enzymes, ACAT1 and ACAT2 (also known as Soat1 and Soat2). In adult humans, ACAT1 is present in most tissues, whereas ACAT2 is localized to enterocytes and h...
