Sterol substrate specificity of acyl coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase from the corn earworm, Heliothis zea.
The enzymatic activity and sterol substrate specificity of acyl coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) were measured in microsomes of cells from Heliothis zea. Under standard assay conditions, the specific enzymatic activity of ACAT was highest in the intestine followed by the fat body and ov...
