2.3.1.206 | physiological function |
olivetolic acid is the first intermediate involved in the cannabinoid biosynthesis in Cannabis sativa leading to the acidic forms of the major cannabinoids such as DELTA9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid and cannabinolic acid |

2.3.1.206 | physiological function |
polyketide synthases play an important role in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites such as resveratrol, a candidate for cancer chemoprevention and naringenin, the precursor for flavonoids. Olivetolic acid is also be expected to be synthesized by a PKS |

2.3.1.206 | physiological function |
the type III PKS, i.e. tetraketide synthase, from cannabis trichomes requires the presence of a polyketide cyclase enzyme, olivetolic acid cyclase, which catalyzes a C2-C7 intramolecular aldol condensation with carboxylate retention to form olivetolic acid. No physical interaction of TKS and OAC. Polyketide cyclases may play a role in generating plant chemical diversity |
