Systematic name: |
(2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, 10-epi-cubebol-forming) |
Comments: |
Isolated from the bacterium Sorangium cellulosum So ce56. The enzyme is also responsible for the formation of trace amounts of many other sesquiterpenes, mainly cadinanes and cubebanes. |
