Sqle - squalene epoxidase Gene

About Sqle

Summary

Predicted to enable FAD binding activity and squalene monooxygenase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including lipid droplet formation; regulation of cell population proliferation; and sterol metabolic process. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human SQLE (squalene epoxidase).
