(3R,6E)-nerolidol synthase 4.2.3.49
(3R,6E)-nerolidol synthase (EC 4.2.3.49, terpene synthase 1) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase ((3R,6E)-nerolidol-forming). Schnee C, Köllner TG, Gershenzon J, Degenhardt J The maize gene terpene synthase 1 encodes a sesquiterpene synthase catalyzing the formation of (E)-β-farnesene, (E)-nerolidol, and (E,E)-farnesol after herbivore damage Plant Physiology 130 4 2049–60 December 2002 12481088 166716 10.1104/pp.008326 This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + H2O (3R,6E)-nerolidol + diphosphate
The enzyme catalyses a step in the formation of (3E)-4,8-dimethylnona-1,3,7-triene.
