Other name(s): | TPS6 (gene name) | ||||
Systematic name: | (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase [cyclizing, (2S,3R,6S,9S)-(–)-protoillud-7-ene-forming] | ||||
Comments: | The enzyme has been described from the slime-mould Dictyostelium discoideum. It is specific for (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate. While the major product is the sequiterpene (2S,3R,6S,9S)-(–)-protoillud-7-ene, traces of pentalenene are also formed. | ||||
