(+)-car-3-ene synthase EC#: 4.2.3.107; ChemWhat Code: 1382688
| Product Name | (+)-car-3-ene synthase |
| Example Structure |  |
| Synonyms | (+)-3-carene synthase, 3-carene cyclase, 3-carene synthase, 3CAR, 3CARS, JF67, Li3CARS, TPS-3car1, TPS-3car2, TPS-3car3 |
| EC Number | 4.2.3.107 |
| CAS Registry Number | |
| Comments | The enzyme reacts with (3S)-linalyl diphosphate twice as rapidly as geranyl diphosphate, but 25 times as rapidly as (3R)-linalyl diphosphate. It is assumed that (3S)-linalyl diphosphate is normally formed as an enzyme bound intermediate in the reaction. In the reaction the 5-pro-R?hydrogen of geranyl diphosphate is eliminated during cyclopropane ring formation [1,2]. In?Picea abies?(Norway spruce) and?Picea sitchensis?(Sitka spruce) terpinolene is also formed [4,6]. See EC?4.2.3.113?terpinolene synthase. (+)-Car-3-ene is associated with resistance of?Picea sitchensis?(Sitka spruce) to white pine weevil [6]. |
