Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis as biotechnological production systems for sesquiterpenoids, a number of diterpenoid engineering platforms are described that use plant diTPSs (and in some cases P450s) to produce, for example, the fragrance precursors sclareol and cis-abienol in the prefume industry. Sclareol from clary sage (Salvia sclarea) is used as a precursor for ambroxide fragrance and fixatives in perfume manufacture Salvia sclarea

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution in angiosperms, class II diTPSs that enable water quenching of the labda-13-en-8-yl carbocation are found in six different plant families, phylogenetic tree, overview Salvia sclarea
physiological function in nature, diterpene synthase (diTPS) enzymes are essential for generating diverse diterpene hydrocarbon scaffolds. Major commercial diterpenoids include sclareol from clary sage (Salvia sclarea) used as a precursor for ambroxide fragrance and fixatives in perfume manufacture. In angiosperms, class II diTPSs that enable water quenching of the labda-13-en-8-yl carbocation are found in six different plant families, these class II diTPSs can pair with class I enzymes, converting oxygenated prenyl diphosphates through ionization with or without secondary cyclization or additional hydroxylation to afford diterpene alcohols, including manoyl oxide, sclareol and cis-abienol, that are of interest in the fragrance industry Salvia sclarea
