General annotation (Comments)

Function

Plays a role in lipoprotein assembly and dietary cholesterol absorption. In addition to its acyltransferase activity, it may act as a ligase. May provide cholesteryl esters for lipoprotein secretion from hepatocytes and intestinal mucosa.

Catalytic activity

Acyl-CoA + cholesterol = CoA + cholesterol ester.

Subunit structure

May form homo- or heterodimers By similarity.

Subcellular location

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the membrane-bound acyltransferase family. Sterol o-acyltransferase subfamily.
