In enzymology a (4S)-limonene synthase (EC 4.2.3.16) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactiongeranyl diphosphate (-)-(4S)-limonene + diphosphateHence this enzyme has one substrate geranyl diphosphate and two products (-)-(4S)-limonene and diphosphate.This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases specifically those carbon-oxygen lyases acting on phosphates. The systematic name of this enzyme class is geranyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase [cyclizing (-)-(4S)-limonene-forming].
