Localization of the Squalene Epoxidase Gene (SQLE) to Human Chromosome Region 8q24.1
Squalene epoxidase (EC 1.14.99.7) catalyzes the first oxygenation step in sterol biosynthesis and is suggested to be one of the rate-limiting enzymes in this pathway. We previously isolated the mammalian squalene epoxidase cDNAs and demonstrated the transcriptional regulation of human squalene epoxidase by sterols and inhibitors.

SQLE Promotes Differentiation and Apoptosis of Bovine Skeletal Muscle-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells [PDF]
In this study, Squalene epoxidase (SQLE) overexpression vector was transfected into bovine skeletal muscle-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) to study the molecular mechanism of SQLE regulating meat quality through myogenesis. We initially profiled the expression of SQLE in cattle embryos and adults, in the muscle tissue of four different ...

SQLE drives bladder cancer progression by boosting mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. [PDF]
Bladder cancer (BCa) remains a prevalent malignancy with limited therapeutic options. Although cholesterol elevation links to BCa progression, the specific role of cholesterol metabolism remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that squalene epoxidase (SQLE), a key cholesterol biosynthesis enzyme, drives BCa oncogenesis.

Squalene monooxygenase(SQLE) protects ovarian cancer cells from ferroptosis
Abstract Being a novel form of programmed cell death, ferroptosis is different from apoptosis, and significantly inhibits the growth of ovarian cancer cells. In this study, the role of squalene monooxygenase (SQLE) in ferroptosis was investigated due importance of lipid metabolism in ferroptosis and its key involvement in OC.

Ferroptosis regulators, especially SQLE, play an important role in prognosis, progression and immune environment of breast cancer [PDF]
Abstract Background Ferroptosis, a new form of programmed cell death, has great potential for cancer treatment. However, the roles of ferroptosis-related (FR) genes in breast cancer (BC) remain elusive. Materials and methods

Structure and inhibition mechanism of the catalytic domain of human squalene epoxidase
Squalene epoxidase (SQLE) is a key enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis and is a target for hypercholesteremia and cancer drug development. Here the authors present the crystal structures of the human SQLE catalytic domain alone and bound with small ...
