A new class EC 7, Translocases, has been added to the EC list. It will be part of ENZYME from release 2018_10. Read more about EC 7 here.

ENZYME entry: EC 4.1.3.36

Accepted Name
1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA synthase.
Alternative Name(s)
DHNA synthetase.
Dihydroxynaphthoic acid synthetase.
Naphthoate synthase.
o-succinylbenzoyl-CoA 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate-lyase (cyclizing).
Reaction catalysed
4-(2-carboxyphenyl)-4-oxobutanoyl-CoA <=> 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA + H(2)O
Comment(s)
  • This enzyme is involved in the synthesis of 1,4-dihydroxy-2- naphthoate, a branch point metabolite leading to the biosynthesis of menaquinone (vitamin K(2), in bacteria), phylloquinone (vitamin K(1) in plants), and many plant pigments.
  • The coenzyme A group is subsequently removed from the product by EC 3.1.2.28.
