Newest firstThe enzymes Cannabichromenic Acid Synthase (CBCAS), Cannabidiolic Acid Synthase (CBDAS) and Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid Synthase (THCAS) are together the major cannabinoid synthase enzymes responsible for the biosynthesis of their respective metabolites from a common precursor Cannabigerolic Acid (CBGA). As the catalysts responsible for generating biological molecules of significant pharmaceutical value, there has…
Open article record in new tab ↗We report enzymes from the berberine bridge enzyme (BBE) superfamily that catalyze the oxidative cyclization of the monoterpene moiety in cannabigerolic acid (CBGA) to form cannabielsoin (CBE). The enzymes are from a variety of organisms and are previously uncharacterized. Out of 232 homologues chosen from the enzyme superfamily, four orthologues were shown to accept CBGA as a substrate and catalyze the biosynthes…
