Entry
EC 4.2.3.177                Enzyme                                 
Name
beta-thujene synthase;
CoTPS1
Class
Lyases;
Carbon-oxygen lyases;
Acting on phosphates
Sysname
geranyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, beta-thujene-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
geranyl diphosphate = beta-thujene + diphosphate [RN:R11842]
Reaction(KEGG)
R11842
Substrate
geranyl diphosphate [CPD:C00341]
Product
beta-thujene [CPD:C21702];
diphosphate [CPD:C00013]
Comment
Isolated from the plant Cananga odorata var. fruticosa (ylang ylang). The enzyme forms roughly equal proportions of beta-thujene, sabinene, beta-pinene and alpha-terpinene see EC 4.2.3.109/EC 4.2.3.110 sabinene synthase, EC 4.2.3.120/EC 4.2.3.122 beta-pinene synthase, EC 4.2.3.115 alpha-terpinene synthase.
