(+)-endo-beta-bergamotene synthase ((2Z,6Z)-farnesyl diphosphate cyclizing) (EC 4.2.3.53, SBS) is an enzyme with systematic name (2Z,6Z)-farnesyl diphosphate lyase (cyclizing; (+)-endo-beta-bergamotene-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(2Z,6Z)-farnesyl diphosphate ⇌ (+)-endo-beta-bergamotene + diphosphate

The enzyme synthesizes a mixture of sesquiterpenoids from (2Z,6Z)-farnesyl diphosphate.
