Valencene synthase

Class of enzymes

Valencene synthase is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (valencene-forming). It is a terpene cyclase enzyme responsible for the biosynthesis of valencene, a sesquiterpene, using farnesyl pyrophosphate as its substrate. The first such enzyme was isolated using orange cDNA. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (+)-valencene + diphosphate
