Acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase in human small intestine: its activity and some properties of the enzymic reaction.

Esterification of endogenous cholesterol in human small intestinal mucosa by acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT, EC 2.3.1.26) was studied using [1-14C]oleoyl-CoA as substrate. The reaction was linear for 2 min only. The esterification of cholesterol was stimulated by albumin, but this effect...
