2.5.1.21 | metabolism |
squalene synthase catalyzes the committed step of sterol synthesis |
722759 |
2.5.1.21 | metabolism |
squalene synthase catalyzes the conversion of farnesyl pyrophosphate into squalene by reductive condensation. This is a crucial step in cholesterol biosynthesis, squalene serves as the exclusive precursor for cholesterol |

2.5.1.21 | metabolism |
squalene synthase is a key enzyme involved in antifungal steroidal glycoalkaloids biosynthesis. Steroidal glycoalkaloids are a family of nitrogenous secondary metabolites acting as phytoalexins, e.g. gamma-solamargine and its aglycone solasodine from Solanum nigrum inhibiting hyphae formation of Fusarium oxysporum |
