ARISTOLOCHENE SYNTHASE FARNESOL COMPLEX
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 10825154
Function
[ARIS_PENRO] Catalyzes the cyclization of trans,trans-farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) to the bicyclic sesquiterpene aristolochene. Produces germacrene A as an enzyme-bound intermediate that is not released by the enzyme, but is further cyclized to produce aristolochene. Aristolochene is the likely parent compound for a number of sesquiterpenoid toxins produced by filamentous fungi.[1] [2]
