Protein: Sterol O-acyltransferase 1 (EC 2.3.1.26) (Acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase 1) (ACAT-1) (Cholesterol acyltransferase 1) (O70536)
Organism: Rattus norvegicus (Rat)
Function: Catalyzes the formation of fatty acid-cholesterol esters, which are less soluble in membranes than cholesterol. Plays a role in lipoprotein assembly and dietary cholesterol absorption. Utilizes oleoyl-CoA ((9Z)-octadecenoyl-CoA) preferentially as susbstrateb a higher activity towards an acyl-CoA substrate with a double bond at the delta-9 position (9Z) than towards saturated acyl-CoA or an unsaturated acyl-CoA with a double bond at the delta-7 (7Z) or delta-11 (11Z) positions.
Subcellular location: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35610}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P35610}.
