| Accepted name: |
(E)-2-epi-β-caryophyllene synthase |
| Reaction: |
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate = (E)-2-epi-β-caryophyllene + diphosphate |
| Other name(s): |
2-epi-(E)-β-caryophyllene synthase; SmMTPSL26 |
| Systematic name: |
(2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, (E)-2-epi-β-caryophyllene-forming) |
| Comments: |
Isolated from the plant Selaginella moellendorfii. The enzyme also gives two other sesquiterpenoids. |
