Squalene is a hydrocarbon origi- initiated by attack of the 2,3-double bond of FPP onto nally isolated from the liver oil of shark (Squalus sp.), the farnesyl cation, which is mechanistically equivalent to but was subsequently found in rat liver and yeast, and normal chain extension using IPP.

Loss of diphosphate from presqualene PP process, was isolated from rat liver.
