| 4.2.3.131 | malfunction |
RNA interference targeting either both of the copalyl diphosphate synthases, TwTPS7v2 and TwTPS9v2, or the subsequently acting miltiradiene synthase, TwTPS27v2, leads to decreased production of triptolide |

| 4.2.3.131 | metabolism |
Lamiaceae-specific clade genes (IrCPS1 and IrCPS2) synthesize the intermediate copalyl diphosphate (normal-CPP), while IrCPS4 and IrCPS5 synthesize the intermediate ent-copalyl diphosphate (ent-CPP). IrKSL2, IrKSL4, and IrKSL5 react with ent-CPP to produce an ent-isopimaradiene-like compound, ent-atiserene and ent-kaurene, respectively. Correspondingly, the Lamiaceae-specific clade genes IrKSL1 or IrKSL3 combined with normal-CPP lead to the formation of miltiradiene.

| 4.2.3.131 | metabolism |
several stereoisomers of copalyl diphosphate (CDP) are found, among which the most common is ent-CDP, the precursor of gibberellins. Other isomers are syn-CDP and normal-CDP, the latter being utilized for the biosynthesis of diterpene resin acids in Gymnosperms and abietane-type tanshinones in Salvia miltiorrhiza. The second step of the cyclization is initiated through the formation of a carbocation upon ionization of the diphosphate linkage of CDP. This is catalyzed by class I terpene synthases which can transform CDP into a variety of polycyclic diterpenoids. By analogy to other labdane-type diterpenoids, the biosynthesis of the diterpene precursor of the carnosic acid pathway in rosemary proceeds in two sequential steps catalyzed by two distinct enzymes. The first is a class II TPS enzyme, CPS1, EC 5.5.1.12, that yields normal CDP, which then is converted by a KSL enzyme to yield an abietane diterpene, miltiradiene. Miltiradiene synthase appears in two isoforms, RoKSL1 and RoKSL2, in Rosmarinus officinalis.
