Neoabietadiene synthase (EC 4.2.3.132, AgAS, PtTPS-LAS) is an enzyme with systematic name (+)-copaly-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (cyclizing, neoabietadiene-forming). [1] [2] [3] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction:

(+)-copalyl diphosphate neoabietadiene + diphosphate

This enzyme is isolated from Abies grandis (grand fir).

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Juvabione</span> Chemical compound

Juvabione, historically known as the paper factor, is the methyl ester of todomatuic acid. Both are sesquiterpenes (C15) found in the wood of true firs of the genus Abies. They occur naturally as part of a mixture of sesquiterpenes based upon the bisabolane scaffold. Sesquiterpenes of this family are known as insect juvenile hormone analogues (IJHA) because of their ability to mimic juvenile activity in order to stifle insect reproduction and growth. These compounds play important roles in conifers as the second line of defense against insect induced trauma and fungal pathogens.
