ID   4.2.3.38
DE   alpha-bisabolene synthase.
CA   (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate = (E,R)-alpha-bisabolene + diphosphate.
CC   -!- While unlikely to encounter geranyl diphosphate (GDP) in vivo as it
CC       is localized to plastids, the enzyme can use GDP as a substrate in
CC       vitro to produce (+)-(4R)-limonene (cf. EC 4.2.3.20).
CC   -!- Induced as part of a defense mechanism in the grand fir Abies grandis
CC       as a response to stem wounding.
CC   -!- Formerly EC 4.2.3.n1.
