Botryococcene synthase (EC 1.3.1.97, SSL-3 (gene)) is an enzyme with systematic name C30 botryococcene:NADP+ oxidoreductase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
- C30 botryococcene + NADP+ + diphosphate presqualene diphosphate + NADPH + H+
This enzyme is isolated from the green alga Botryococcus braunii BOT22.
