Intermembrane transfer of squalene promoted by supernatant protein factor

Journal of Lipid Research, 1983
Supernatant protein factor (SPF), a protein that stimulates squalene epoxidation, mediates the transfer of squalene between two separable microsomal populations (Kojima, Y., E. J. Friedlander, and K. Bloch, 1981. J. Biol Chem. 256: 7235-7239).

Rhodosporidium sp. DR37: a novel strain for production of squalene in optimized cultivation conditions

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background Rhodosporidium strain, a well-known oleaginous yeast, has been widely used as a platform for lipid and carotenoid production. However, the production of squalene for application in lipid-based biofuels is not reported in this strain.

Emergence of Trichophyton indotineae in Switzerland (2014–2025): Clinical analysis and antifungal susceptibility

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Background and objectives Trichophyton indotineae is an emerging dermatophyte associated with chronic, recalcitrant dermatophytosis and terbinafine resistance due to squalene epoxidase (SQLE) mutations. We analyzed clinical characteristics, antifungal susceptibility profiles, SQLE mutations, and treatment outcomes of cases diagnosed in ...

Metabolic mRNA insufficiency of single cells: Implications for drug targeting and resistance

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Because none of the single‐cell mRNA profiles of growing cell populations encoded any pathway towards cell growth, we used cluster‐averaged transcriptomes to estimate protein‐constrained Vmax's and identify (combinations of) subpopulation‐specific targets to overcome drug resistance.

TLC screening of thraustochytrid strains for squalene production

, 2014
Screenings of thraustochytrids (Labyrinthulomycetes) have been conducted for 176 strains isolated from various sites in the Asian region to investigate what type of species and strains accumulate high levels of squalene.

Squalene-2,3-Oxide, an Intermediate in the Enzymatic Conversion of Squalene to Lanosterol and Cholesterol

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1967
Abstract The conversion of squalene to lanosterol by rat liver preparations in vitro has been re-examined. It has been shown that this transformation, hitherto considered to take place through the agency of one enzyme ("squalene oxidocyclase-1"), actually involves the formation of squalene-2,3-oxide as an intermediate.
