Delta6-protoilludene synthase

Δ6-Protoilludene synthase (EC 4.2.3.135, 6-protoilludene synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, Δ6-protoilludene-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction


 * (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate $$\rightleftharpoons$$ Δ6-protoilludene + diphosphate

This enzyme is isolated from the fungus Armillaria gallica.
