In vitro expression of natural mutants of human lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase.

Fish-eye disease (FED) and familial lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) deficiency (FLD) are rare disorders of lipid metabolism linked to mutations in the LCAT gene. Eleven LCAT cDNA constructs associated with FED and FLD were prepared by site-directed mutagenesis and expressed in COS-6 cell...
