| Comments | Requires Mg2+?for activity. While germacrene A is an enzyme-bound intermediate in the biosynthesis of a number of phytoalexins, e.g. EC?4.2.3.9?(aristolochene synthase) from some species and EC?4.2.3.21?(vetispiradiene synthase), it is the sole sesquiterpenoid product formed in chicory [1]. |
| Cofactor | Mg2+ |
| History | |
| Reactions | (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate = (+)-(R)-germacrene A + diphosphate. |
