Anti-Cholesterol acyltransferase 1 Antibody

Descrição detalhada : Cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) is mitochondrially localized enzyme that catalyzes the reversible formation of acetoacetyl-CoA from two molecules of acetyl-CoA and plays a significant role in ketone body metabolism. Defects in the gene encoding ACAT1 are associated with the alpha-methylacetoaceticaciduria disorder,an inborn error of isoleucine catabolism characterized by urinary excretion of 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyric acid, 2-methylacetoacetic acid, tiglylglycine, and butanone. Recent studies suggests that ACAT1 may be a therapeutic target for treating certain forms of Alzeheimer′s disease.
