chain-elongation activity, while similar mutations in the active site of FPPase failed to significantly promote formation of significant amounts of irregularmonoterpenes. Our results indicate that CPPase, a promiscuous enzyme, is more plastic toward acquiring new activities, whereas FPPase is more resistant. Mutations of residues outside of the α terpene synthase fold are important for acquisition of FPPase
