'''Cis-muuroladiene synthase''' ({{EC number|4.2.3.67}}, ''MxpSS1'') is an [[enzyme]] with system name ''(2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cis-muuroladiene-forming)''.<ref>{{cite journal | title = Cloning and functional characterisation of a <em>cis</em>-muuroladiene synthase from black peppermint (<em>Mentha</em> &times; <em>piperita</em>) and direct evidence for a  chemotype unable to synthesise farnesene |author = Prosser, I.M., Adams, R.J., Beale, M.H., Hawkins, N.D., Phillips, A.L., Pickett, J.A. and Field, L.M. |journal = Phytochemistry |date = 2006 |volume = 67 |pages = 1564-1571 |pmid = 16083926}}</ref> This enzyme [[catalysis|catalyses]] the following [[chemical reaction]]

: (1) (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> cis-muurola-3,5-diene + [[diphosphate]]
: (2) (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate <math>\rightleftharpoons</math> cis-muurola-4(14),5-diene + diphosphate

The recombinant enzyme from black peppermint produces a mixture of cis-muurola-3,5-diene and cis-muurola-4(14),5-diene.
