Biosynthesis of daurichromenic acid (DCA). DCA is synthesized by DCA synthase via stereoselective oxidocyclization of the farnesyl moiety of grifolic acid. Two electrons from the substrate are abstracted by enzyme-bound flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), and then transferred to molecular oxygen to release H2O2 as the by-product, as described previously.4
