UniProtKB description:  Involved in the biosynthesis of phenolic monoterpenes natural products thymol and carvacrol which have a broad range of biological activities acting as antimicrobial compounds, insecticides, antioxidants and pharmaceutical agents (PubMed:26750479). Monoterpene synthase which catalyzes the conversion of geranyl diphosphate (GPP) to gamma-terpinene and the minor products alpha-thujene, alpha-terpinene, myrcene, sabinene, (+)-R-limonene, alpha-pinene and alpha-phellandrene (PubMed:26750479).
