Tetrahydrocannabinol is the main psychoactive component of cannabis and one of at least 113 total cannabinoids identified in the plant. Although the chemical formula of THC describes multiple isomers, the term THC generally refers to the compound itself. Interestingly, just as art stores provide a variety of materials for creative expression, the diverse isomers of THC offer different effects and applications. Based on X-ray structure data and THCAS mutational analysis, Shoyama et al proposed a possible catalytic reaction mechanism for THCAS.
