Anybody using thca synthase to create thca from cbga in a lab setting?

I’ve been reading (trying to at least) on thca synthase and the journals state that cbga oxidizes due to a monoterpene moiety and the enzyme, but I can’t figure out which monoterpenes. Are you suggesting that p Cymene is used in synthetic production of thca? Or perhaps that p cymene reacts with the olivetol to make cbga?

If not anyone know what the monoterpene moiety might consist of?
