Entry Q9SM02
Entry NameERG14_ARATH
Sequence Statusreviewed
Protein NameSqualene epoxidase 1 (AtSQE1) (EC 1.14.14.17) (Protein DROUGHT HYPERSENSITIVE 2) (Squalene monooxygenase) (XF1 protein)
Sequence Length531
Gene NameSQE1 DRY2 XF1 At1g58440 F9K23.3
OrganismArabidopsis thaliana (Mouse-ear cress)
EC Number1.14.14.17
Protein FunctionFUNCTION: Catalyzes the first oxygenation step in sterol biosynthesis and is suggested to be one of the rate-limiting enzymes in this pathway. Can produce not only oxidosqualene, but also 2,3:22,23-dioxidosqualene. Main squalene epoxidase in the root. Sqe1 mutants may show defects in membrane lipid rafts, impairing the correct localization of RHD2 NADPH oxidase and the proper polarized production of ROS. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17426032, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19309460, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19847116}.
PathwayPATHWAY: Terpene metabolism; lanosterol biosynthesis; lanosterol from farnesyl diphosphate: step 2/3.
