namespace: biological_process
def: "OBSOLETE. Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of cholesterol esterification. Cholesterol esterification is the lipid modification process in which a sterol ester is formed by the combination of a carboxylic acid (often a fatty acid) and cholesterol. In the blood this process is associated with the conversion of free cholesterol into cholesteryl ester, which is then sequestered into the core of a lipoprotein particle." [GOC:BHF, GOC:dph, GOC:tb]
comment: This term was obsoleted because it represents a molecular function.
