Thujopsene synthase (EC 4.2.3.79) is an enzyme with system name (2E6E)-farnesyl diphosphate lyase (cyclizing (+)-thujopsene-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction (2E6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (+)-thujopsene + diphosphateThe recombinant enzyme from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana produces (+)-alpha-barbatene (+)-thujopsene and (+)-beta-chamigrene.
