Acyltransferase
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase; Diglyceride acyltransferase; acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase; mono- acylglycerol acyltransferase
Acyltransferase (AT) catalyzes the transfer of an acyl moiety from acyl-coenzyme A (acyl-CoA) to an acceptor. Acyltransferases play important roles in the maintenance of homeostasis in the human body and have been linked to various diseases. The Acyltransferase family includes acyl-CoA:cholesterol AT (ACAT), diacylglycerol AT (DGAT), and monoacylglycerol AT (MGAT) for the metabolism of lipids.
ACAT (acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase) is an intracellular enzyme that catalyzes the formation of cholesterol esters from cholesterol and fatty acyl-coenzyme A. In mammals, two isoenzymes, ACAT1 and ACAT2, encoded by two different genes, exist. ACATs play important roles in cellular cholesterol homeostasis in various tissues.
DGAT (acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase) is an integral membrane enzyme that catalyses the last step of triacylglycerol synthesis from diacylglycerol and acyl-CoA. DGAT activity resides mainly in two distinct membrane bound polypeptides, known as DGAT1 and DGAT2.
MGAT (acyl-CoA:monoacylglycerol acyltransferase) catalyzes the synthesis of diacylglycerol, the precursor of physiologically important lipids such as triacylglycerol and phospholipids. In the intestine, MGAT plays a major role in the absorption of dietary fat because resynthesis of triacylglycerol is required for the assembly of lipoproteins that transport absorbed fat to other tissues.

SPT-IN-2
0 ImagesSPT-IN-2 is an orally active serine palmitoyltransferase (SPT) inhibitor (with an IC50 of 0.71 nM against human SPT2). SPT-IN-2 inhibits ceramide synthesis, suppresses cancer cell growth, and exhibits in vivo anti-tumor activity, favorable metabolic stability and cell membrane permeability in xenograft mouse models. SPT-IN-2 blocks the de novo sphingolipid synthesis pathway, significantly reducing intracellular ceramide levels and the levels of 3-ketodihydrosphingosine (3-KDS), the immediate downstream product of SPT. SPT-IN-2 can be used in research related to lung adenocarcinoma, acute promyelocytic leukemia and breast cancer.
