. "Lavandulyl diphosphate is a monoterpene with a non-head-to-tail linkage; it is unlike most monoterpenoids, which are derived from geranyl diphosphate and have isoprene units that are linked head-to-tail." . "When this enzyme is incubated with dimethylallyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate, it also forms the regular monoterpene geranyl diphosphate." . "The enzyme from Artemisia tridentata (big sagebrush) forms both lavandulyl diphosphate and chrysanthemyl diphosphate (see EC 2.5.1.67) when dimethylally diphosphate is the sole substrate." . . . "FDS-5" . "Lavandulyl diphosphate synthase" . "2 dimethylallyl diphosphate = diphosphate + lavandulyl diphosphate." .
