Activating Compound

EC Number Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
2.3.1.43 apolipoprotein A-I ApoA-I, required for activity, activation in inhibited by binding of haptoglobin Homo sapiens
2.3.1.43 apolipoprotein E ApoE, stimulates the enzyme Homo sapiens

Inhibitors

EC Number Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
2.3.1.43 Haptoglobin binds apolipoprotein A-I and E, via its Hpt beta-subunit, and impairs its stimulation of LCAT, mechanism, overview. The affinity of Hpt for ApoE is higher than that for ApoA-I. Hpt also impairs human hepatoblastoma-derived cell uptake of cholesterol from proteoliposomes containing ApoE or ApoA-I Homo sapiens
2.3.1.43 additional information interaction between Hpt and ApoE represents a mechanism by which inflammation affects atherosclerosis progression Homo sapiens
