Fig. 6. Proposed precursor-product relationships diagram of AQ and 4-AAQB in A. cinnamomea. The formation of the farnesyl tails of AQ and 4-AAQB are formed via mevalonate pathway. The benzoquinone ring of AQ can be formed via both shikimate pathway and polyketide pathway, but that of 4-AAQB and its intermediates synthesized only via polyketide pathway. The ring formed via polyketide pathway is marked in red color, and that formed via shikimate pathway is marked in blue color.
