ENZYME entry: EC 2.5.1.67

Accepted Name
chrysanthemyl diphosphate synthase
Alternative Name(s)
CPPase
Reaction catalysed
2 dimethylallyl diphosphate <=> (R,R)-chrysanthemyl diphosphate + diphosphate
Comment(s)
  • Chrysanthemyl diphosphate is a monoterpene with a non-head-to-tail linkage; it is unlike most monoterpenoids, which are derived from geranyl diphosphate and have isoprene units that are linked head- to-tail.
  • The mechanism of its formation is similar to that of the early steps of squalene and phytoene biosynthesis.
  • Chrysanthemyl diphosphate is the precursor of chrysanthemic acid, the acid half of the pyrethroid insecticides found in chrysanthemums.
