Requires a divalent metal ion for activity, with Mg2+ being better than Mn2+ . 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 {terp/squalphyto::squalene and phytoene biosynthesis}. Chrysanthemyl diphosphate is the precursor of chrysanthemic acid, the acid half of the pyrethroid insecticides found in chrysanthemums.

Artemisia tridentata chrysanthemyl diphosphate synthase is an example of an enzyme that has evolved recently from a highly specialized parent. The origins of farnesyl diphosphate synthase date back to the very beginning of cellular life, and the enzyme has perfected its ability to catalyze chain-elongation. In contrast, Artemisia tridentata chrysanthemyl diphosphate synthase has recently evolved from Artemisia tridentata diphosphate synthase, presumably by gene duplication and random mutagenesis but is still a promiscuous inefficient catalyst in comparison with farnesyl diphosphate synthase

construction of chimera between chrysanthemyl diphosphate synthase CPPase and farnesyl diphosphate synthase FPPase, EC 2.5.1.10 by sequentially replacing the loops and helices of the six-helix bundle from one enzyme with those from the other. Chain elongation is the dominant activity during the N-terminal to C-terminal metamorphosis of FPPase to CPPase, with product selectivity gradually switching from FPP to GPP, until replacement of the final alpha-helix, where upon cyclopropanation and branching activity compete with chain elongation. During the metamorphosis of CPPase to FPPase, cyclopropanation and branching activities are lost upon replacement of the first helix in the six-helix bundle. Mutations of active site residues in CPPase to the corresponding amino acids in FPPase enhance chain-elongation activity, while similar mutations in the active site of FPPase fail to significantly promote formation of significant amounts of irregular monoterpenes
construction of mutant enzymes as CPPase-FPPase chimeras with the larger domains of CPPase substituted for FPPase in the Artemisia tridentata enzyme, the CPPase-FPPase chimeras are biosynthetically more promiscuous than either native CPPase or FPPase as a result of a reshaped template for substrate binding, which permits alternative trajectories for intermolecular carbon-carbon bond formation, overview
