Cubebol synthase (EC 4.2.3.91, Cop4) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, cubebol-forming).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + H2O [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] cubebol + diphosphate

This enzyme requires Mg2+.
