Entry
EC 4.2.3.150                Enzyme                                 
Name
cembrene A synthase;
DtcycB (gene name)
Class
Lyases;
Carbon-oxygen lyases;
Acting on phosphates
Sysname
geranylgeranyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase [(R)-cembrene-A-forming]
Reaction(IUBMB)
geranylgeranyl diphosphate = (R)-cembrene A + diphosphate [RN:R10898]
Reaction(KEGG)
R10898
Substrate
geranylgeranyl diphosphate [CPD:C00353]
Product
(R)-cembrene A [CPD:C09140];
diphosphate [CPD:C00013]
Comment
Requires Mg2+. Isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces sp. SANK 60404. This trifunctional enzyme, which contains a [4Fe-4S] cluster, also produces (R)-nephthenol and (1S,4E,8E,12E)-2,2,5,9,13-pentamethylcyclopentadeca-4,8,12-trien-1-ol. See EC 4.2.3.149, nephthenol synthase and EC 4.2.3.151, pentamethylcyclopentadecatrienol synthase.
