Article Synopsis
- Next-generation sequencing has greatly increased data on enzyme sequences, many of which are unstudied but could enhance understanding of enzyme evolution.
- Integrating teaching and research in college can help characterize numerous enzymes, particularly focusing on SABATH methyltransferases that convert salicylic acid into methyl salicylate.
- The study shows that there's a strong conservation of substrate preference in SA methyltransferases, with specific genetic features influencing their function, but many sequences still await analysis, indicating vast potential for future research.
Quantitative analysis of Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) in oral fluid has gained increasing interest in clinical and forensic toxicology laboratories. New medicinal and/or recreational cannabinoid products require laboratories to distinguish different patterns of cannabinoid use. This study validated a high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for 13 different cannabinoids, including (-)-trans-Δ8-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ8-THC), (-)-trans-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC), cannabidiol (CBD), Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinolic acid-A (Δ9-THCA-A), cannabidiolic acid (CBDA), 11-hydroxy-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (11-OH-Δ9-THC), 11-nor-9-carboxy-Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THCCOOH), tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV), cannabidivarin (CBDV), cannabidiorcol (CBD-C1), cannabichromene (CBC), cannabinol (CBN) and cannabigerol (CBG), in oral fluid.
