摘 要:Acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase(ACAT) is a key enzyme playing important roles in cholesterol *** catalyzes the formation of cholesteryl ester from cholesterol and long-chain fatty acyl-coenzyme A in various cell *** mammals,two ACAT genes encoding ACAT1 and ACAT2 have been *** sequence of human ACAT1 mRNA is produced from two different chromosomes 1 and 7 with individual promoters P1 and P7,named ACAT1 gene and ACAT1C7 gene respectively. Our previous studies have revealed the promoter activity
