LP15695-7   Lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase
Lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT, also called phosphatidylcholine-sterol O-acyltransferase) is an enzyme that converts free cholesterol into cholesteryl ester (a more hydrophobic form of cholesterol), which is then sequestered into the core of a lipoprotein particle, eventually making the newly synthesized HDL spherical and forcing the reaction to become unidirectional since the particles are removed from the surface. The enzyme is bound to high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and low-density lipoproteins in the blood plasma. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.

LP15695-7   Lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase
Lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency (LCAT) deficiency is a disorder of lipoprotein metabolism. LCAT catalyzes the formation of cholesterol esters in lipoproteins. The disease has two forms: 1) familial LCAT deficiency in which there is complete LCAT deficiency and 2) fish eye disease in which there is a partial deficiency. Both are autosomal recessive disorders caused by mutations of the LCAT gene located on chromosome 16q22. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
