(−)-delta-cadinene synthase
Template:Short description Template:Infobox enzyme (−)-δ-Cadinene synthase (EC 4.2.3.97) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, (−)-δ-cadinene-forming).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (−)-δ-cadinene + diphosphate
The cyclization mechanism involves an intermediate nerolidyl diphosphate.
