(e,e,e,e)-squalene

(e,e,e,e)-squalene is a lipid of Fatty Acyls (FA) class. (e,e,e,e)-squalene is associated with abnormalities such as Hypercholesterolemia and Cataract. The involved functions are known as Process, metaplastic cell transformation, Protein Overexpression, Anabolism and Biosynthetic Pathways. (e,e,e,e)-squalene often locates in Membrane, Protoplasm, Plasma membrane, Tissue membrane and Back. The associated genes with (e,e,e,e)-squalene are Genome, IMPACT gene, GAPDH gene, GTF2I gene and Chromatin. The related lipids are Membrane Lipids, cycloartenol, Sterols, Fatty Acids and Nonesterified Fatty Acids.
