The squalene synthase (SQS) gene encodes a key regulatory enzyme, farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase (EC 2.5.1.21), in sterol biosynthesis. The SQS1 gene was isolated from a subgenomic library of the industrially important yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, using PCR-generated probes. Probes were base
The Kluyveromyces lactis homocysteine synthase gene was cloned by complementation of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae met25 mutation. The coding sequence of the K. lactis gene shows a high similarity to the S. cerevisiae gene. Very little similarity is found in the 5 and 3 untranslated regions. However,
