Description
Requires Mg2+. The enzyme from Pogostemon cablin gives 13% α-guaiene as well as 37% (-)-patchoulol (see EC 4.2.3.70), 13% Δ-guaiene (see EC 4.2.3.93), and traces of at least ten other sesquiterpenoids. In Aquilaria crassna three clones of the enzyme gave about 80% Δ-guaiene and 20% α-guaiene, with traces of α-humulene. A fourth clone gave 54% Δ-guaiene and 45% α-guaiene.
