4.2.3.178 | physiological function |
the enzyme synthesizes the C25 linear substrate (2E,6E,10E,14E)-geranylfarnesyl diphosphate from dimethylallyl diphosphate and 4 molecules of isopentenyl dipohosphate and also cyclizes (2E,6E,10E,14E)-geranylfarnesyl diphosphate into stellata-2,6,19-triene, which is further transformed into stellatic acid by a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase encoded by the gene adjacent to the sesterterpene synthase gene |
