Anthranilate—CoA ligase

In enzymology, an anthranilate—CoA ligase (EC 6.2.1.32) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction The 3 substrates of this enzyme are ATP, anthranilate, and CoA, whereas its 3 products are AMP, diphosphate, and anthranilyl-CoA.

This enzyme belongs to the family of ligases, specifically those forming carbon-sulfur bonds as acid-thiol ligases.

The systematic name of this enzyme class is anthranilate:CoA ligase (AMP-forming).

This enzyme participates in 3 metabolic pathways: carbazole degradation, benzoate degradation via coa ligation, and acridone alkaloid biosynthesis.
