(−)-germacrene D synthase
Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme (−)-Germacrene D synthase (EC 4.2.3.75) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase ((−)-germacrene-D-forming).[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (−)-germacrene D + diphosphate
In Solidago canadensis the biosynthesis results in the pro-R hydrogen at C-1 of the farnesyl diphosphate ending up at C-11 of the (−)-germacrene D .
