Sysname
geranyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase [cyclizing, (R)-limonene-forming]
Reaction(IUBMB)
geranyl diphosphate = (R)-limonene + diphosphate [RN:R06120]
Reaction(KEGG)
R06120
Substrate
geranyl diphosphate [CPD:C00341]
Product
(R)-limonene [CPD:C06099];
diphosphate [CPD:C00013]
Comment
Forms the first step of carvone biosynthesis in caraway. The enzyme from Carum carvi (caraway) seeds requires a divalent metal ion (preferably Mn2+) for catalysis. This enzyme occurs in Citrus, Carum (caraway) and Anethum (dill); (-)-limonene, however, is made in the fir, Abies, and mint, Mentha, by EC 4.2.3.16, (4S)-limonene synthase.
