The shape of human squalene epoxidase expands the arsenal against cancer
Abstract Squalene epoxidase (also known as squalene monooxygenase, EC 1.14.99.7) is a key rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis. Anil Padyana and colleagues report the long awaited structure of human squalene epoxidase (SQLE). They solved the crystal structure of the catalytic domain of h...
