Regulation of squalene epoxidase activity and comparison of catalytic properties of rat liver and Chinese hamster ovary cell-derived enzymes.

Squalene epoxidase activity has been studied in cell-free preparations of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and rat liver. In contrast to rat liver microsomal squalene epoxidase, the enzyme of CHO cells is only slightly activated by the autologous cytosolic fraction, whereas phosphatidylglycerol or...
