Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityATP + 2-succinylbenzoate + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + 2-succinylbenzoyl-CoA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18208520}.
Disruption PhenotypeLack of phylloquinone and seedling lethal. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18208520}.
FunctionInvolved in the biosynthesis of phylloquinone (vitamin K1). Converts 2-succinylbenzoate (OSB) to 2-succinylbenzoyl-CoA (OSB-CoA). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18208520}.
