Exo-alpha-bergamotene synthase
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
exo-α-Bergamotene synthase (EC 4.2.3.81, trans-α-bergamotene synthase, LaBERS (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate lyase (cyclizing, (â)-exo-α-bergamotene-forming).[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:
- (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (â)-exo-α-bergamotene + diphosphate
