Terpentetriene synthase

Terpentetriene synthase (EC 4.2.3.36, Cyc2) is an enzyme with systematic name terpentedienyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (terpentetriene-forming).^[1]^[2]^[3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

terpentedienyl diphosphate

\rightleftharpoons

This enzyme requires Mg²⁺ for maximal activity but can use Mn²⁺, Fe²⁺ or Co²⁺ to a lesser extent.
