The ACAT1 mRNA encodes a mitochondrially localized enzyme that catalyzes the reversible formation of acetoacetyl-CoA from two molecules of acetyl-CoA. The ACAT gene spans approximately 27kb and contains 12 exons interrupted by 11 introns. Defects in this gene are associated with the alpha-methylacetoaceticaciduria disorder, an inborn error of isoleucine catabolism characterized by urinary excretion of 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyric acid, 2-methylacetoacetic acid, tiglylglycine, and butanone.

Suitable for use in FLISA. Other applications not tested.
