α-seco-amyrin synthase (EC 5.4.99.52) is an enzyme with systematic name (3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene mutase (cyclizing, alpha-seco-amyrin-forming).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- (3S)-2,3-epoxy-2,3-dihydrosqualene [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] alpha-seco-amyrin
The enzyme from Arabidopsis thaliana is multifunctional.
