Description
ACAT1 Monoclonal Antibody [PAT2C5A] (CPAB0463)
The ACAT1 Polyclonal Antibody (CPAB0463) is a valuable tool for researchers studying ACAT1, an enzyme involved in cholesterol metabolism and important for cellular lipid homeostasis. This antibody, produced in rabbits, shows high reactivity with human samples and is validated for use in Western blot applications. By binding specifically to the ACAT1 protein, this antibody enables researchers to detect and analyze ACAT1 expression in various cell types, making it ideal for studies in metabolic disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and lipid metabolism research.
ACAT1, also known as acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase 1, plays a crucial role in cholesterol esterification and the formation of lipid droplets, contributing to cellular lipid storage and energy metabolism. Dysregulation of ACAT1 has been implicated in various diseases, including atherosclerosis, obesity, and metabolic syndromes. Investigation into the function of ACAT1 is crucial for understanding its role in lipid metabolism and developing potential therapies for related disorders.

Background: | Acetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (ACAT1) is an enzyme member of the membrane-bound acyltransferase family and Sterol o-acyltransferase subfamily. The ACAT1 enzyme catalyzes the reversible formation of acetoacetyl-CoA from 2 molecules of acetyl-CoA. ACAT1 plays a part in lipoprotein compilation and dietary cholesterol absorption. Added to its acyltransferase activity, ACAT1 acts as a ligase. |
