Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (−)-menthol and NADP +, whereas its 3 products are (−)-menthone, NADPH, and H +. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD + or NADP + as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is (−)-menthol:NADP ...
The pathway for ethylene biosynthesis is named the Yang cycle after the scientist Shang Fa Yang who made key contributions to elucidating this pathway. Ethylene is biosynthesized from the amino acid methionine to S -adenosyl- L -methionine (SAM, also called Adomet) by the enzyme Met adenosyltransferase.

In the United States, all cannabis products in a regulated market must be grown in the state where they are sold because federal law continues to ban interstate cannabis sales.
In vitro, CBG has identified pharmacodynamic actions and its mechanism of action appears to be from interactions with multiple targets. [1] [2] [3]CBG is a weak ligand of the cannabinoid CB 1 and CB 2 receptors with affinities (K i) of 380–2,600 nM and 153–3,460 nM, respectively.

Well-known terpenoids include citral, menthol, camphor, salvinorin A in the plant Salvia divinorum, ginkgolide and bilobalide found in Ginkgo biloba and the cannabinoids found in cannabis. The provitamin beta carotene is a terpene derivative called a carotenoid.
Its seeds are rich in strychnine and brucine. Alkaloids are generated by various living organisms, especially by higher plants – about 10 to 25% of those contain alkaloids. [171] [172] Therefore, in the past the term "alkaloid" was associated with plants. [173]
