lecithin–cholesterol acyltransferase /lec·i·thin–cho·les·ter·ol ac·yl·trans·fer·ase/ (LCAT) (kah-les´ter-ol a″sil-trans´fer-ās) an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of cholesteryl esters in high-density lipoproteins; deficiency of enzyme activity, an inherited disorder, results in accumulation of cholesterol and phosphatidylcholine in plasma and tissues, which causes corneal opacities, anemia, and often proteinuria.
