  <name>2-Succinylbenzoate</name>
  <description>2-succinylbenzoate is a member of the chemical class known as Benzoic Acid and Derivatives. These are organic compounds containing a carboxylic acid substituent attached to a benzene ring.  2-Succinylbenzoate is invovled in the biosynthesis of menaquinone. o-Succinylbenzoate synthase (OSBS) from Escherichia coli, a member of the enolase superfamily, catalyzes an exergonic dehydration reaction in the menaquinone biosynthetic pathway in which 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate (SHCHC) is converted to 4-(2'-carboxyphenyl)-4-oxobutyrate (o-succinylbenzoate or OSB).  The first aromatic intermediate in the menaquinone biosynthetic pathway is o-succinylbenzoate (OSB); it is formed from chorismate/isochorismate and 2-ketoglutarate. (PMID 3902015) The first aromatic intermediate in the menaquinone biosynthetic pathway is o-succinylbenzoate (OSB); it is formed from chorismate/isochorismate and 2-ketoglutarate.  The first aromatic intermediate in the menaquinone biosynthetic pathway is o-succinylbenzoate (OSB); it is formed from chorismate/isochorismate and 2-ketoglutarate.  The first aromatic intermediate in the menaquinone biosynthetic pathway is o-succinylbenzoate (OSB); it is formed from chorismate/isochorismate and 2-ketoglutarate.  coli strains synthesize an intermediate, "X", which is converted to OSB by extracts of menC+ cells. It was demonstrated that chorismate is the branch point compound leading to menaquinone, and that 2-succinylbenzoic acid and 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoic acid can serve as menaquinoone precursors in E. coli. (PMID 1091286) The committed step in menaquinone biosynthesis is the formation of o-succinylbenzoate (OSB).  (PMID 3516220) The suggestion is made that the spirodilactone is the product of an aberrant reaction involving a compound that is normally an intermediate in the conversion of 2-succinylbenzoate to 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate. (PMID 99177) The presence of shikimic acid in the growth medium restores the ability of an aroD mutant to synthesize cmo5U, while O-succinylbenzoate, which is an early intermediate in the synthesis of menaquinone, does not.

      <name>Menaquinol biosythesis</name>
      <description>Menaquinol biosynthesis starts with chorismate being metabolized into isochorismate through a isochorismate synthase. Isochorismate then interacts with 2-oxoglutare and a hydrogen ion through a 2-succinyl-5-enolpyruvyl-6-hydroxy-3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylate synthase resulting in the release of a carbon dioxide and a 2-succinyl-5-enolpyruvyl-6-hydroxy-3-cyclohexene-1-carboxylate. The latter compound then interacts with (1R,6R)-2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate synthase resulting in the release of a pyruvate and a (1R,6R)-6-hydroxy-2-succinylcyclohexa-2,4-diene-1-carboxylate. This compound is the dehydrated through a o-succinylbenzoate synthase resulting in the release of a water molecule and a 2-succinylbenzoate. This compound  then interacts with a coenzyme A and an ATP through a o-succinylbenzoate CoA ligase resulting in the release of a diphosphate, a AMP and a succinylbenzoyl-CoA. The latter compound interacts with a hydrogen ion through a 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA synthase resulting in the release of a water molecule or a 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA. This compound then interacts with water through a 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA thioesterase resulting in the release of a coenzyme A, a hydrogen ion and a 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate.
The 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate can interact with either farnesylfarnesylgeranyl-PP or octaprenyl diphosphate  and a hydrogen ion through a 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoate octaprenyltransferase resulting in a release of a carbon dioxide, a pyrophosphate and a demethylmenaquinol-8. This compound then interacts with SAM through a bifunctional 2-octaprenyl-6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinone methylase and S-adenosylmethionine:2-DMK methyltransferase resulting in a hydrogen ion, a s-adenosyl-L-homocysteine and a menaquinol.</description>
