Description
This enzyme is involved in the synthesis of 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate, a branch point metabolite leading to the biosynthesis of menaquinone (vitamin K2, in bacteria), phylloquinone (vitamin K1 in plants), and many plant pigments.The coenzyme A group is subsequently removed from the product by EC 3.1.2.28, 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA hydrolase.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
