Record overview

MGPD IDMGP001053
Gene ID2222
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namefarnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase 1
Gene Symbol FDFT1
SynonymsSS; SQS; DGPT; ERG9;
Alternate namessqualene synthase; FPP:FPP farnesyltransferase; presqualene-di-diphosphate synthase; squalene synthetase;
Chromosome8
Map Location8p23.1-p22
EC Number2.5.1.21
SummaryThis gene encodes a membrane-associated enzyme located at a branch point in the mevalonate pathway. The encoded protein is the first specific enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, catalyzing the dimerization of two molecules of farnesyl diphosphate in a two-step reaction to form squalene.
