(−)-gamma-cadinene synthase ((2Z,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate cyclizing)

Class of enzymes (−)-γ-cadinene synthase ((2Z,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate cyclizing) 4.2.3.62 (−)-γ-Cadinene synthase (EC 4.2.3.62, (2Z,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate cyclizing) ((−)-γ-cadinene cyclase) is an enzyme with the systematic name (2Z,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase ((−)-γ-cadinene-forming). In vitro biosynthesis of cadinanes by cell-free extracts of cultured cells of Heteroscyphus planus Nabeta K, Fujita M, Komuro K, Katayama K, Takasawa T J. Chem.
