A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 4.2.3.132

Accepted Name
Neoabietadiene synthase.
Reaction catalysed
(+)-copalyl diphosphate <=> neoabietadiene + diphosphate
Comment(s)
  • Isolated from Abies grandis (grand fir).
  • This class I enzyme forms about equal proportions of abietadiene, levopimaradiene and neoabietadiene; see also EC 4.2.3.18 and EC 4.2.3.32.
  • An X-ray study of this multifunctional enzyme showed that the class I activity is in the alpha domain, while EC 5.5.1.12 activity (a class II activity) is in the beta and gamma domains.
  • In Pinus taeda (loblolly pine) the major product is levopimaradiene, with less abietadiene and neoabietadiene.
