LCAT - lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About LCAT
This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Broad expression in liver (RPKM 51.1), skin (RPKM 11.1) and 19 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes the extracellular Cholesterol esterifying enzyme, lecithin-cholesterol Acyltransferase. The esterification of Cholesterol is required for Cholesterol transport. Mutations in this gene have been found to cause fish-eye disease as well as LCAT deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
