Descriptions

  • Description Encodes squalene synthase, which converts two molecules of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) into squalene via an intermediate: presqualene diphosphate (PSPP). It is generally thought to be one of the key enzymes of sterol biosynthesis, since it catalyzes the first pathway-specific reaction of the sterol branch of the isoprenoid pathway. | squalene synthase 1 (SQS1) | FUNCTIONS IN: farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase activity | INVOLVED IN: sterol biosynthetic process | LOCATED IN: endoplasmic reticulum, plasma membrane, endoplasmic reticulum membrane | EXPRESSED IN: 26 plant structures | EXPRESSED DURING: 15 growth stages | CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Squalene/phytoene synthase, conserved site , Terpenoid synthase , Farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase , Squalene/phytoene synthase | BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: squalene synthase 2
