Lecanoric-acid

It is not the substate but the product of association of two orsellinate molecules. The biosynthesis probably occurs via the formation of 2 orsellinate intermediates fused together by the C-terminal thioesterase (TE) domain that finally releases lecanoric acid. The same reaction is performed by thioesterase domain of PKS either belonging to BD-FAE or to the thoesterase family. Inhibitor of histidine decarboxylase
