In enzymology, an α-pinene-oxide decyclase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, α-pinene oxide, and one product, -2-methyl-5-isopropylhexa-2,5-dienal.
This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically the class of intramolecular lyases. The systematic name of this enzyme class is α-pinene-oxide lyase. This enzyme is also called α-pinene oxide lyase. This enzyme participates in limonene and pinene degradation.
