Gene: [16q221/LCAT] lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase; Norum disease (lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency); fish-eye disease (dyslipoproteinemic corneal dystrophy; alpha-lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase deficiency; MIM:136120);
HET | Two diseases are determined by deficiency of lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT): alpha-LCAT, which is specific for high density lipoproteins, and beta-LCAT which is specific for low and very low density lipoproteins." |
GEN | The gene length is 4.5 kb. Exons: 6; introns: 5; the 3'-flanking region contains four Alu-repeats; mRNA is 1.55 kb; the mature protein consists of 416 amino acid residues." |
