ENZYME entry: EC 4.2.3.29
| Accepted Name |
|---|
| Ent-sandaracopimaradiene synthase.
|
| Alternative Name(s) |
|---|
| Ent-sandaracopimara-8(14),15-diene synthase. |
| Reaction catalysed |
|---|
| Ent-copalyl diphosphate <=> ent-sandaracopimara-8(14),15-diene + diphosphate |
| Comment(s) |
|---|
- Ent-sandaracopimaradiene is a precursor of the rice oryzalexins A-F.
- Phytoalexins are diterpenoid secondary metabolites that are involved
in the defense mechanism of the plant, and are produced in response
to pathogen attack through the perception of elicitor signal
molecules such as chitin oligosaccharide, or after exposure to UV
irradiation.
- As a minor product, this enzyme also forms ent-pimara-8(14),15-diene,
which is the sole product of EC 4.2.3.30.
- Ent-pimara-8(14),15-diene is not a precursor in the biosynthesis of
either gibberellins or phytoalexins.
