Mouse LCAT Protein

Recombinant Mouse LCAT Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the C-Terminus.It contains Phe25-Glu438. Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) is the only enzyme capable of esterifying cholesterol in plasma, thus determining the maturation of high-density lipoproteins. Because it maintains an unesterified cholesterol gradient between peripheral cells and extracellular acceptors, for a long time, LCAT has been considered as a key enzyme in reverse cholesterol transport.
