ENZYME entry: EC 2.3.1.77

Accepted Name
Triacylglycerol--sterol O-acyltransferase.
Reaction catalysed
Triacylglycerol + a 3-beta-hydroxysterol <=> diacylglycerol + a 3-beta-hydroxysterol ester
Comment(s)
  • Tripalmitoylglycerol can act as donor, and, more slowly, other triacylglycerols containing C(6) to C(22) fatty acids.
  • The best acceptors are 3-beta-hydroxysterols with a planar ring system.
