Assay Method Information

Assay Name:  ACAT-1 Enzyme Inhibition Assay
Description:  The assay mixture contains test compound, membrane protein, cholesterol solubilized in Triton WR-1339, and glutathione in a 96-deep well plate. The reaction was started by adding substrate [14C]oleoyl coenzyme A and incubated. After the reaction was stopped, radioactive cholesteryl oleate product was separated into the organic heptane phase. ACAT-1 activity was quantified by counting aliquots of the upper heptane layer by liquid scintillography.
