  4.2.3.93 | metabolism |
the enzyme is involved in the biosynthetic pathways for sesquiterpenes found in agarwood and cell suspension cultures, putative pathway, overview. Various post-transcriptional, translational, or post-translational regulatory mechanisms affecting the expression or activity of alpha-humulene and delta-guaiene synthases are possible |

| 4.2.3.93 | physiological function |
the enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of the three sesquiterpenes, alpha-guaiene (cf. EC 4.2.3.87), alpha-humulene (cf. EC 4.2.3.104), and delta-guaiene, only very small amounts of alpha-humulene are produced |
