Farnesyl diphosphate synthase catalyzes the sequential head-to-tail condensation of two molecules of isopentenyl diphosphate with dimethylallyl diphosphate. In plants the presence of farnesyl diphosphate synthase isozymes offers the possibility of differential regulation. Three full-length cDNAs encoding putative isoprenoid synthases, FDS-1, FDS-2, and FDS-5, with greater than 89% similarity were isolated from a Big Sagebrush Artemisia tridentata cDNA library using a three-step polymerase chain reaction protocol. One of the open reading frames, FDS-5, encoded a protein with an N-terminal amino acid extension that was identified as a plastidial targeting peptide. Recombinant histidine-tagged versions of three proteins were purified, and their enzymatic properties were characterized. FDS-1 and FDS-2 synthesized farnesyl diphosphate as the final chain elongation product, but their kinetic behavior varied. FDS-1 prefers geranyl diphosphate over dimethylallyl diphosphate as an allylic substrate and is active at acidic pH values compared with FDS-2. In contrast, FDS-5 synthesized two irregular monoterpenoids, chrysanthemyl diphosphate and lavandulyl diphosphate, when incubated with dimethylallyl diphosphate and an additional product, the regular monoterpene geranyl diphosphate, when incubated with isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate. Specific cellular functions are proposed for each of the three enzymes, and a scenario for evolution of isoprenyl synthases in plants is presented. << Less

Chrysanthemyl diphosphate synthase. The relationship among chain elongation, branching, and cyclopropanation reactions in the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway.
Erickson H.K., Poulter C.D.
The genes for chrysanthemyl diphosphate (CPP) synthase and farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) synthase from sagebrush, Artemisia tridentata spiciformis, were used to prepare a series of chimeric proteins to investigate the 1'-4 chain elongation, 1'-2 branching, and c1'-2-3 cyclopropanation reactions that ... >> More
The genes for chrysanthemyl diphosphate (CPP) synthase and farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) synthase from sagebrush, Artemisia tridentata spiciformis, were used to prepare a series of chimeric proteins to investigate the 1'-4 chain elongation, 1'-2 branching, and c1'-2-3 cyclopropanation reactions that join isoprenoid units to build more complex structures. The two genes were modified by site-directed mutagenesis to generate an identical set of six unique restriction sites at identical locations. The locations were selected to place a restriction site between each of the five conserved regions found in prenyltransferases that catalyze chain elongation. A series of chimeric proteins were generated by replacing amino acids in FPP synthase, beginning at the N-terminus of the enzyme, with increasing stretches of peptide from CPP synthase. An analysis of the products produced by the chimeras revealed a transition from 1'-4 chain elongation, to 1'-2 branching, and ultimately to c1'-2-3 cyclopropanation. These results demonstrate that the catalytic site for chain elongation, with minor modifications in its architecture, also catalyzes 1'-2 branching and c1'-2-3 cyclopropanation, and suggest that the branching and cyclopropanation reactions, in analogy to chain elongation, are electrophilic alkylations. << Less
