The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_3_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was named:

"
Terpene synthase, N-terminal domain
".

FunFam 4: Carene synthase, chloroplastic

Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

There are 9 GO terms relating to "molecular function"

The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.
GO Term Annotations Evidence
Terpene synthase activity GO:0010333
Catalysis of the formation of cyclic terpenes through the cyclization of linear terpenes (e.g. isopentenyl-PP, geranyl-PP, farnesyl-PP and geranylgeranyl-PP) containing varying numbers of isoprene units.
5 F1CKI6 (/IDA) F1CKI8 (/IDA) F1CKI9 (/IDA) Q84KL4 (/IDA) Q84SM8 (/IDA)
Lyase activity GO:0016829
Catalysis of the cleavage of C-C, C-O, C-N and other bonds by other means than by hydrolysis or oxidation, or conversely adding a group to a double bond. They differ from other enzymes in that two substrates are involved in one reaction direction, but only one in the other direction. When acting on the single substrate, a molecule is eliminated and this generates either a new double bond or a new ring.
4 F1CKI6 (/IDA) F1CKI8 (/IDA) F1CKI9 (/IDA) Q84SM8 (/IDA)
Magnesium ion binding GO:0000287
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with magnesium (Mg) ions.
3 Q84KL3 (/IDA) Q84KL4 (/IDA) Q84KL6 (/IDA)
Potassium ion binding GO:0030955
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with potassium (K+) ions.
3 Q84KL3 (/IDA) Q84KL4 (/IDA) Q84KL6 (/IDA)
Metal ion binding GO:0046872
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any metal ion.
3 Q84KL3 (/IDA) Q84KL4 (/IDA) Q84KL6 (/IDA)
Pinene synthase activity GO:0050550
Catalysis of the reaction: geranyl diphosphate = pinene + diphosphate.
2 Q84KL3 (/IDA) Q84KL6 (/IDA)
Terpene synthase activity GO:0010333
Catalysis of the formation of cyclic terpenes through the cyclization of linear terpenes (e.g. isopentenyl-PP, geranyl-PP, farnesyl-PP and geranylgeranyl-PP) containing varying numbers of isoprene units.
1 C7ASI9 (/ISS)
Sesquiterpene synthase activity GO:0010334
Catalysis of the reaction: trans,trans-farnesyl diphosphate = a sesquiterpene + diphosphate. Sesquiterpenes are terpenes containing three isoprene units, i.e. 15 carbons.
1 Q84KL5 (/IDA)
Lyase activity GO:0016829
Catalysis of the cleavage of C-C, C-O, C-N and other bonds by other means than by hydrolysis or oxidation, or conversely adding a group to a double bond. They differ from other enzymes in that two substrates are involved in one reaction direction, but only one in the other direction. When acting on the single substrate, a molecule is eliminated and this generates either a new double bond or a new ring.

GO Term Annotations Evidence
Monoterpene biosynthetic process GO:0043693
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of monoterpenes, terpenes with a C10 structure.
5 F1CKI6 (/IDA) F1CKI8 (/IDA) F1CKI9 (/IDA) Q84KL4 (/IDA) Q84SM8 (/IDA)
Geranyl diphosphate metabolic process GO:0033383

Alpha-pinene biosynthetic process GO:0046248
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of alpha-pinene, a monoterpene that may be a significant factor affecting bacterial activities in nature.
2 Q84KL3 (/IDA) Q84KL6 (/IDA)
Response to jasmonic acid GO:0009753
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a jasmonic acid stimulus.
1 F1CKI6 (/IEP)
Monoterpene biosynthetic process GO:0043693
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of monoterpenes, terpenes with a C10 structure.
1 C7ASI9 (/ISS)
Farnesyl diphosphate metabolic process GO:0045338
