SQLE - squalene epoxidase Gene

Homo sapiens
Gene ID: 6713 | Gene type: protein coding

About SQLE

Cytogenetic location: 8q24.13 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 8:124,998,505-125,022,283 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants) and 213 orthologues. Broad expression in testis (RPKM 28.6), esophagus (RPKM 19.3) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

Squalene epoxidase catalyzes the first oxygenation step in sterol biosynthesis and is thought to be one of the rate-limiting Enzymes in this pathway. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
