Newest firstCannabinoids are a therapeutically valuable class of secondary metabolites with a vast number of substituents. The native cannabinoid biosynthetic pathway of Cannabis sativa generates cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), the common substrate to multiple cannabinoid synthases. The bioactive decarboxylated analog of this compound, cannabigerol (CBG), represents an alternate gateway into the cannabinoid space as a substrate e…
Open article record in new tab ↗In the native pathway to therapeutic cannabinoid biosynthesis in Cannabis sativa, the three-step production of a key intermediate, olivetolic acid, is catalysed by the enzymes tetraketide synthase (TKS; linear tetraketide intermediate production in two stages) and olivetolic acid cyclase (OAC; final C2 → C7 aldol condensation). In the absence of OAC, a nonenzymatic C2 → C7 decarboxylative aldol condensation of the…
