The Promiscuity of Squalene Synthase-Like Enzyme: Dehydrosqualene Synthase, a Natural Squalene Hyperproducer? [PDF]
Dehydrosqualene synthase (CrtM), as a squalene synthase-like enzyme from Staphylococcus aureus, can naturally utilize farnesyl diphosphate to produce dehydrosqualene (C30H48).

Unveiling an unexpected superoxide-mediated photooxidation mechanism of squalene monohydroperoxides to squalene hydroperoxy cyclic peroxides through ESR and LC-MS/MS analyses [PDF]
, 2023 Lipid cyclic peroxides are a rarely reported and documented class of compounds in the human organism. Recently, we reported the formation of squalene (SQ) hydroperoxy cyclic peroxides derived from SQ monohydroperoxide isomers (SQ-OOHs) for the first time.

Functional characterization of squalene synthase and squalene epoxidase in Taraxacum koksaghyz [PDF]
Plant Direct, 2018 AbstractThe Russian dandelion Taraxacum koksaghyz produces high‐value isoprenoids such as pentacyclic triterpenes and natural rubber in the latex of specialized cells known as laticifers. Squalene synthase (SQS) and squalene epoxidase (SQE) catalyze key steps in the biosynthesis of cyclic terpenoids, but neither enzyme has yet been characterized in T ...

Squalene enhances γIR toxicity. [PDF]
, 2016 Relative cell viability was measured by a clonogenic assay. (A) Cytotoxicity of squalene (0, 1, 3, 10, 30, and 100 μM) was measured after 14 days of incubation. (B) and (C) Impact of squalene on radiation toxicity.
