In enzymology, an amorpha-4,11-diene synthase (ADS) () is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction :2-trans,6-trans-farnesyl diphosphate (unicode:⇌) amorpha-4,11-diene + diphosphate Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, 2-trans,6-trans-farnesyl diphosphate, and two products, amorpha-4,11-diene and diphosphate. This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically those carbon-oxygen lyases acting on phosphates. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 2-trans,6-trans-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (amorpha-4,11-diene-forming). This enzyme is also called amorphadiene synthase. This enzyme is mainly found in ''Artemisia annua'', a temperate Asian native flowering plant, and ADS catalyzes the first committed step in the antimalarial drug artemisinin synthesis. == Enzyme Properties == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Amorpha-4,11-diene synthase」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
