Sysname
9alpha-copalyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (stemar-13-ene-forming)
Reaction(IUBMB)
9alpha-copalyl diphosphate = stemar-13-ene + diphosphate [RN:R09115]
Reaction(KEGG)
R09115
Substrate
9alpha-copalyl diphosphate [CPD:C11902]
Product
stemar-13-ene [CPD:C18223];
diphosphate [CPD:C00013]
Comment
This diterpene cyclase produces stemar-13-ene, a putative precursor of the rice phytoalexin oryzalexin S. Phytoalexins are diterpenoid secondary metabolites that are involved in the defense mechanism of the plant, and are produced in response to pathogen attack through the perception of elicitor signal molecules such as chitin oligosaccharide, or after exposure to UV irradiation.
