| Reaction(KEGG) |
|
| Substrate |
(S)-beta-bisabolene [CPD: C19751]

|
| Comment |
The synthesis of (S)-beta-macrocarpene from (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate proceeds in two steps. The first step is the cyclization to (S)-beta-bisabolene (cf. EC 4.2.3.55, (S)-beta-bisabolene synthase). The second step is the isomerization to (S)-beta-macrocarpene.
