The Need for Enzymatic Steering in Abietic Acid Biosynthesis: Gas-Phase Chemical Dynamics Simulations of Carbocation Rearrangements on a Bifurcating Potential Energy Surface.

Abietic acid, a constituent of pine resin, is naturally derived from abietadiene - a process that requires four enzymes: one (abietadiene synthase) for conversion of the acyclic, achiral geranylgeranyl diphosphate to the polycydic, chiral abietadiene (a complex process involving the copalyl diphosph...
