REACTION DIAGRAM
(+)-copalyl-diphosphate
(-)-abietadiene + levopimaradiene + neoabietadiene + palustradiene + diphosphate
(+)-copalyl-diphosphate
13-hydroxy-8(14)-abietene + diphosphate

the initial products formed and released in vitro are unstable alcohols identified as epimeric thermally unstable allylic tertiary alcohols, 13-hydroxy-8(14)-abietene. The dehydration of the alcohol products, yielding the well established diterpene products levopimaradiene, abietadiene, neoabietadiene, and palustradiene, occurs due to the conditions of the GC-MS analysis typically used

abietadiene synthase (PaLAS) is a bifunctional terpene synthase that catalyzes both class I and class II reactions, i.e. formation of (+)-copalyl diphosphate from geranylgeranyl diphosphate (cf. EC 5.5.1.12, class II diTPS), and formation of abieta-8(14),12-diene from (+)-copalyl diphosphate (EC 4.2.3.32, class I diTPS)
