Differential expression of ACAT1 and ACAT2 among cells within liver, intestine, kidney, and adrenal of nonhuman primates

Differential expression of ACAT1 and ACAT2 among cells within liver, intestine, kidney, and adrenal of nonhuman primates

Two closely related enzymes with more than 50% sequence identity have been identified that catalyze the esterification of cholesterol using acyl-CoA substrates, namely acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) and ACAT2. Both are membrane-spanning proteins believed to reside in the endoplasmic...
