-15°C to -25°C/1 year(Do not lower than -25°C)
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) and linolenoyl-CoA ((9Z,12Z,15Z)-octadecatrienoyl-CoA) as substrates . May provide cholesteryl esters for lipoprotein secretion from hepatocytes and intestinal mucosa . ; [Isoform 2]: Has lower enzymatic activity compared to isoform 1. ; [Isoform 3]: Has lower enzymatic activity compared to isoform 1.
