About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for LCAT: This gene encodes the extracellular cholesterol esterifying enzyme, lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase. Theesterification of cholesterol is required for cholesterol transport. Mutations in this gene have been found to causefish-eye disease as well as LCAT deficiency. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: LCAT_HUMAN, P04180Function: Central enzyme in the extracellular metabolism of plasma lipoproteins. Synthesized mainly in the liver andsecreted into plasma where it converts cholesterol and phosphatidylcholines (lecithins) to cholesteryl esters andlysophosphatidylcholines on the surface of high and low density lipoproteins (HDLs and LDLs). The cholesterol ester isthen transported back to the liver. Has a preference for plasma 16:0-18:2 or 18:O-18:2 phosphatidylcholines. Alsoproduced in the brain by primary astrocytes, and esterifies free cholesterol on nascent APOE-containing lipoproteinssecreted from glia and influences cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) APOE- and APOA1 levels. Together with APOE and thecholesterol transporter ABCA1, plays a key role in the maturation of glial-derived, nascent lipoproteins.

OMIM gene information: 606967 OMIM disorders: 245900 136120 UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: LCAT_HUMAN, P04180
Defects in LCAT are the cause of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency (LCATD) [MIM:245900]; alsocalled Norum disease. LCATD is a disorder of lipoprotein metabolism characterized by inadequate esterification ofplasmatic cholesterol. Two clinical forms are recognized: familial LCAT deficiency and fish-eye disease. Familial LCATdeficiency is associated with a complete absence of alpha and beta LCAT activities and results in esterificationanomalies involving both HDL (alpha-LCAT activity) and LDL (beta-LCAT activity). It causes a typical triad of diffusecorneal opacities, target cell hemolytic anemia, and proteinuria with renal failure Defects in LCAT are a cause of fish-eye disease (FED) [MIM:136120]; also known as dyslipoproteinemic cornealdystrophy or alpha-LCAT deficiency. FED is due to a partial LCAT deficiency that affects only alpha-LCAT activity. Itis characterized by low plasma HDL and corneal opacities due to accumulation of cholesterol deposits in the cornea('fish-eye') 20/99 diseases for LCAT (see all 99): About MalaCardsfish-eye disease cholesterol eye disease defective apolipoprotein b-100 north american indian childhood cirrhosis sea-blue histiocytosis niemann-pick disease arcus senilis lipoprotein lipase deficiency benign recurrent intrahepatic cholestasis cetp deficiency patent ductus arteriosus lipoprotein glomerulopathy alcohol abuse myocardial infarction growth hormone deficiency acute myocardial infarction familial combined hyperlipidemia corneal dystrophy hyperalphalipoproteinemia
