Beta-eudesmol synthase (EC 4.2.3.68) is an enzyme with systematic name (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (beta-eudesmol-forming).[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + H2O \rightleftharpoons beta-eudesmol + diphosphate

The recombinant enzyme from ginger (Zingiber zerumbet) gives beta-eudesmol, 10-epi-gamma-eudesmol, alpha-eudesmol and aristolene.
