Comments

Comment Type Description
Catalytic Activity 2 farnesyl diphosphate + NAD(P)H = squalene + 2 diphosphate + NAD(P)(+).
Cofactor Name=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420;
Function Critical branch point enzyme of isoprenoid biosynthesis that is thought to regulate the flux of isoprene intermediates through the sterol pathway.
Pathway Terpene metabolism; lanosterol biosynthesis; lanosterol from farnesyl diphosphate: step 1/3.
Similarity Belongs to the phytoene/squalene synthase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular Location Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
