Alpha-gurjunene synthase (EC 4.2.3.72) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase ((-)-alpha-gurjunene-forming). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate
Initial cyclization probably gives biyclogermacrene in an enzyme bound form.
