(+)-β-caryophyllene synthase 4.2.3.89
(+)-β-Caryophyllene synthase (EC 4.2.3.89, GcoA) is an enzyme with systematic name (2Z,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, (+)-β-caryophyllene-forming). Nakano C, Horinouchi S, Ohnishi Y Characterization of a novel sesquiterpene cyclase involved in (+)-caryolan-1-ol biosynthesis in Streptomyces griseus The Journal of Biological Chemistry 286 32 27980–7 August 2011 21693706 10.1074/jbc.m111.265652 3151043 free This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (+)-β-caryophyllene + diphosphate
This enzyme also converts the (+)-β-caryophyllene to (+)-caryolan-1-ol.
