Structural insights into the inhibition mechanism of human sterol O-acyltransferase 1 by a competitive inhibitor

Sterol O-acyltransferase 1 (SOAT1, also named ACAT1) is an endoplasmic reticulum resident enzyme which catalyzes the esterification of cholesterol to generate cholesteryl esters. Here, authors report cryo-EM structures of human SOAT1 which reveal the binding site of the competitive inhibitor CI-976.
