ENZYME entry: EC 4.2.3.48

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/4.2.3.48
Accepted Name
(3S,6E)-nerolidol synthase
Alternative Name(s)
(3S)-(E)-nerolidol synthase
(E)-nerolidol synthase
nerolidol synthase
Reaction catalysed
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + H2O = (3S,6E)-nerolidol + diphosphate
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme catalyzes a step in the formation of 4,8-dimethyl- 1,3(E),7-nonatriene, a key signal molecule in induced plant defense mediated by the attraction of enemies of herbivores.
  • Nerolidol is a naturally occurring sesquiterpene found in the essential oils of many types of plants.
