Beta-chamigrene synthase
Class of enzymes
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
β-Chamigrene synthase (EC 4.2.3.78) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate lyase (cyclizing, (+)-β-chamigrene-forming).[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (+)-β-chamigrene + diphosphate
