Terpentedienyl-diphosphate synthase (EC 5.5.1.15, terpentedienol diphosphate synthase, Cyc1, clerodadienyl diphosphate synthase) is an enzyme with systematic name terpentedienyl-diphosphate lyase (decyclizing). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

geranylgeranyl diphosphate ⇌ terpentedienyl diphosphate

This enzyme requires Mg²⁺.
