Provided herein are biocatalytic methods of producing terpene compounds by applying a novel type of phosphatase enzyme. The method allows the fully biochemical synthesis of terpene compounds, like for example copalol and labdendiol, and derivatives thereof, which serve as valuable intermediates for the production of perfumery ingredients, such as, for example, ambrox. Also provided are novel fully biochemical multistep processes for the production of such compounds as well as novel phosphatase enzymes and mutants and variants derived therefrom.

Class II diterpene cyclases catalyze bicyclization of geranylgeranyl diphosphate. While this reaction typically is terminated via methyl deprotonation to yield copalyl diphosphate, in rare cases hydroxylated bicycles are produced instead. Abietadiene synthase is a bifunctional diterpene cyclase that usually produces a copalyl diphosphate intermediate. Here it is shown that substitution of aspartate for a conserved histidine in the class II active site of abietadiene synthase leads to selective production of 8 alpha-hydroxy-CPP instead, demonstrating striking plasticity.
