Descriptions

Description
squalene synthase 2
Curated Summary
Encodes a protein with similarity to squalene synthase which catalyzes the first committed step in sterol biosynthesis. To date no experimental evidence exists that SQS2 functions as a squalene synthase and some experiments indicate it does not have this function.
