SYSTEMATIC NAME
IUBMB Comments
(2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase [(+)-gamma-cadinene-forming]
The cloned enzyme from the melon, Cucumis melo, gave mainly delta- and gamma-cadinene with traces of several other sesquiterpenoids cf. EC 4.2.3.62 (-)-gamma-cadinene synthase [(2Z,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate cyclizing]; EC 4.2.3.13 (+)-delta-cadinene synthase.

gamma-cadinene + delta-cadinene + diphosphate
show the reaction diagram
-
the recombinant enzyme catalyzes the formation of three sesquiterpenes from farnesyl diphosphate: delta-cadinene, gamma-cadinene and lower levels of alpha-copaene
gamma-cadinene and delta-cadinene are the main products post harvest and in mature fruit stage, respectively (about 60% yield each)
