Specificity: This Polyclonal antibody is directed against human ACAT1 protein. The product was purified from serum by protein A chromatography. Cross-reactivity with ACAT1 from other sources has not been determined.Relevance: ACAT1, acetoacetyl CoA thiolase, plays a major role in ketone body metabolism. It is a mitochondrially localized enzyme that catalyzes the reversible formation of acetoacetyl-CoA from two molecules of acetyl-CoA. Defects in the gene encoding ACAT1 are associated with the alpha-methylacetoaceticaciduria disorder,an inborn error of isoleucine catabolism characterized by urinary excretion of 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyric acid, 2-methylacetoacetic acid, tiglylglycine, and butanone.
