Cyclization mechanism of monoterpenes catalyzed by monoterpene synthases in dipterocarpaceae

Synthetic and Systems Biotechnology
Monoterpenoids are typically present in the secretory tissues of higher plants, and their biosynthesis is catalyzed by the action of monoterpene synthases (MTSs). However, the knowledge about these enzymes is restricted in a few plant species. MTSs are responsible for the complex cyclization of monoterpene precursors, resulting in the production of ...
