ABSTRACT:
This invention pertains to purified, biologically active acyl coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) and to nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) encoding acyl coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase. The nucleic acid, or a fragment thereof, may be ligated with an expression vector and transfected into cells to express acyl coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase activity in intact cells and in cell-free extracts.
