syn-Pimara-7,15-diene synthase (EC 4.2.3.35, 9β-pimara-7,15-diene synthase, OsDTS2, OsKS4) is an enzyme with systematic name 9α-copalyl-diphosphate diphosphate-lyase (9β-pimara-7,15-diene-forming).[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

9α-copalyl diphosphate [math]\displaystyle{ \rightleftharpoons }[/math] 9β-pimara-7,15-diene + diphosphate

This enzyme is a class I terpene synthase.
