Neumann B, Chao K, Chang C, Chang T
Arch Biochem Biophys . 2020 Aug; 691:108518. PMID: 32735863
To conduct biochemical studies in vitro, membrane proteins (MPs) must be solubilized with detergents. While detergents are great tools, they can also inhibit the biological activity and/or perturb oligomerization of...

Guan C, Niu Y, Chen S, Kang Y, Wu J, Nishi K, et al.
Nat Commun . 2020 May; 11(1):2478. PMID: 32424158
Sterol O-acyltransferase 1 (SOAT1) is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) resident, multi-transmembrane enzyme that belongs to the membrane-bound O-acyltransferase (MBOAT) family. It catalyzes the esterification of cholesterol to generate cholesteryl esters...

Neumann B, Chang C, Chang T
MethodsX . 2019 Nov; 6:2242-2247. PMID: 31667125
Acyl-CoA:cholestereol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) is a two-fold dimer (homotetramer) and has two distinct dimerization domains. One domain is in an alpha-helical rich region near the cytoplasmic N-terminus. The other is...

Melton E, Li H, Benson J, Sohn P, Huang L, Song B, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2019 Sep; 294(43):15836-15849. PMID: 31495784
Cholesterol esters are a key ingredient of foamy cells in atherosclerotic lesions; their formation is catalyzed by two enzymes: acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferases (ACATs; also called sterol acyltransferases, or SOATs) ACAT1 and...

Arch Biochem Biophys . 2019 Jun; 671:103-110. PMID: 31251920
Cholesterol is an important lipid molecule and is needed for all mammalian cells. In various cell types, excess cholesterol is stored as cholesteryl esters; acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) plays an...

Am J Physiol Endocrinol Metab . 2018 Mar; 315(3):E340-E356. PMID: 29533741
Macrophages are phagocytes that play important roles in health and diseases. Acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) converts cellular cholesterol to cholesteryl esters and is expressed in many cell types. Unlike global...
