β-Phellandrene synthase (EC 4.2.3.52, geranyl-diphosphate-cyclizing) (phellandrene synthase, (−)-β-phellandrene synthase, (−)-(4S)-β-phellandrene synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name geranyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing; β-phellandrene-forming).[1][2][3][4] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

geranyl diphosphate [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] β-phellandrene + diphosphate

This enzyme requires ion Mn2+.
