Abstract: The application relates to recombinant polypeptides having berberine bridge enzyme (BBE) activity that are derived from microorganisms, such as Phytohabitans sufuscus, Streptomyces sp. AJS327, Streptomyces varsoviensis, Actinomadura pelletieri, Streptomyces flaveolus, Streptomyces sp. Ru71. or Streptomyces sp. CNH287, and the use of these recombinant polypeptides in compositions and methods for the oxidative cyclization of prenylated compounds, such as CBGA, in carrying out the biosynthesis, including cell-free biosynthesis, of cyclized cannabinoid compounds, such as CBCA, THCA, and CBDA.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions comprising cyclolavandulyl derivatives of aromatic compounds, such as cannabinoids, flavonoids, and alkaloids, and methods for preparing and using the compositions.

Abstract: Systems and methods for prenylation and recombinant pathways for the production of compounds, cannabinoids, cannabinoid precursors, and other prenylated chemicals in a cell free system. The present invention further includes enzymes and recombinant microorganisms that catalyze the reaction. The compounds, cannabinoids, cannabinoid precursors, and other prenylated chemicals are operable to be substituted with at least one deuterium, at least one tritium, at least one halogen, at least one hydroxyl group, and/or at least one additional isotope.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to recombinant prenyltransferase enzymes with increased thermostability and activity and the use of these enzymes in compositions and methods for biosynthesis involving prenylation reactions, including compositions and methods for the preparation of cannabinoids.
