The conserved chemistry of the Isoprenoid Synthase Class II superfamily involves the formation of a carbocation by protonating an epoxide or olefin. Members share a common fold, termed the alpha/alpha toroid fold in SCOP. Many characterized enzymes in this superfamily are known to be promiscuous. Note: Some enzymes may consist of two domains, where both domains are superfamily members. Additionally, some enzymes may have multiple domains where one or more are members of this superfamily and an additional domain is a member of the Isoprenoid Synthase Class I superfamily.
