Abstract

Multiproduct terpene synthases TPS4-B73 and TPS5-Delprim from Zea mays exhibit isotopically sensitive branching in the formation of mono- and sesquiterpene volatiles. The impact of the kinetic isotope effects and the stabilization of the reactive intermediates by hyperconjugation along with the shift of products from alkenes to alcohols are discussed.
