EC 4.2.3.187 Details
EC number
4.2.3.187
Accepted name
(2Z,6E)-hedycaryol synthase
Reaction
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + H2O = (2Z,6E)-hedycaryol + diphosphate
Other name(s)
HcS
Systematic name
(2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase [cyclizing, (2Z,6E)-hedycaryol-forming]
Comment
Isolated from the bacterium Kitasatospora setae. The stereochemistry suggests the farnesyl diphosphate rearranges to nerolidyl diphosphate or an equivalent intermediate before cyclization. See also EC 4.2.3.174 (2E,6E)-hedycaryol synthase.
