Function
Catalyzes the formation of fatty acid-cholesterol esters, which are less soluble in membranes than cholesterol (PubMed : 11294643, PubMed : 16647063). Plays a role in lipoprotein assembly and dietary cholesterol absorption (PubMed : 11294643). Utilizes oleoyl-CoA ((9Z)-octadecenoyl-CoA) and linolenoyl-CoA ((9Z,12Z,15Z)-octadecatrienoyl-CoA) as substrates (PubMed : 11294643). May provide cholesteryl esters for lipoprotein secretion from hepatocytes and intestinal mucosa (PubMed : 11294643).. Isoform 2. Has lower enzymatic activity compared to isoform 1.. Isoform 3. Has lower enzymatic activity compared to isoform 1.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the membrane-bound acyltransferase family. Sterol o-acyltransferase subfamily.
Post-translational modifications
Polyubiquitinated by AMFR/gp78 at Cys-277, leading to its degradation when the lipid levels are low (PubMed:28604676). Association with AMFR/gp78 is mediated via interaction with INSIG1 (PubMed:28604676). High concentration of cholesterol and fatty acid results in Cys-277 oxidation, preventing ubiquitination at the same site, resulting in protein stabilization (PubMed:28604676).. Oxidized at Cys-277: high concentration of cholesterol and fatty acid induce reactive oxygen species, which oxidizes Cys-277, preventing ubiquitination at the same site, and resulting in protein stabilization.
