Further Information

Additional Names:
Phosphatidylcholine-sterol acyltransferase, also named Lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase, Phospholipid-cholesterol acyltransferase and LACT, is an extracellular cholesterol esterifying enzyme which belongs to the AB hydrolase superfamily., LCAT
Application Note:
This recombinant protein can be used for biological assays. For research use only.
Background:
Lipase family. The gene encoding this protein is expressed mainly in brain, liver and testes,followed by secreting into plasma and cerebral spinal fluid. The esterification of cholesterol is required for cholesterol transport. LCAT is a central enzyme in the extracellular metabolism of plasma lipoproteins. Defects in LCAT are the cause of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency (LCATD) and a cause of fish-eye disease (FED).
Buffer:
Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of 50mM Acetate Buffer pH-4.0. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 ug/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O.
