Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic Activity(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate = (Z)-gamma- bisabolene + diphosphate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16297850}.
CofactorName=Mg(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:18420; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Name=Mn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29035; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Note=Binds 3 Mg(2+) or Mn(2+) ions per subunit. {ECO:0000250};
DomainThe Asp-Asp-Xaa-Xaa-Asp/Glu (DDXXD/E) motif is important for the catalytic activity, presumably through binding to Mg(2+).
FunctionInvolved in sesquiterpene (C15) biosynthesis. The major product is (Z)-gamma-bisabolene with minor amounts of (E)- nerolidol and alpha-bisabolol. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16297850}.
InductionBy wounding. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16297850}.
PathwaySecondary metabolite biosynthesis; terpenoid biosynthesis.
Sequence CautionSequence=CAB40765.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=CAB78372.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the terpene synthase family. Tpsa subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationCytoplasm {ECO:0000305}.
Tissue SpecificityPredominantly expressed in roots. Expressed in the cortex and the sub-epidermal layers of roots. Also detected in leaf hydathodes and flower stigmata. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12566586, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16297850}.
