'''Trichodiene synthase''' (TCS) catalyzes the conversion of trans,trans-farnesyl diphosphate to trichodiene and diphosphate (PP).  TCS belongs to the family of sesquiterpene syntases which cyclize the acyclic farnesyl diphosphate to a sesquiterpene.  TCS contains metal ion-binding motif<ref>PMID:7875326</ref>.
