Epi-isozizaene synthase (EC 4.2.3.37, SCO5222 protein) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase ((+)-epi-isozizaene-forming).[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (+)-epi-isozizaene + diphosphate

This enzyme requires Mg2+ for activity.
