Entry Q1EG72
Entry NameTPS11_MAIZE
Sequence Statusreviewed
Protein Name(S)-beta-macrocarpene synthase (EC 5.5.1.17) (Terpene synthase 11)
Sequence Length548
Gene NameTPS11 UMI3
OrganismZea mays (Maize)
EC Number5.5.1.17
Protein FunctionFUNCTION: Involved in the biosynthesis of the bicyclic sesquiterpene (S)-beta-macrocarpene. Can use both geranyl diphosphate and farnesyl diphosphate as substrate, but not geranylgeranyl diphosphate. Produces mainly (S)-beta-macrocarpene, but also smaller amounts of beta-bisabolene and (E)-beta-farnesene when used with farnesyl diphosphate as substrate. In the presence of geranyl diphosphate, produces the acyclic monoterpenes beta-myrcene and linalool along with minor amounts of the cyclic compounds limonene, alpha-thujene, sabinene and alpha-terpinolene. May be involved in plant defense. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18524777}.
PathwayPATHWAY: Secondary metabolite biosynthesis; terpenoid biosynthesis.
