EC 6.2.1.43     
Accepted name: 2-hydroxy-7-methoxy-5-methyl-1-naphthoate—CoA ligase
Reaction: ATP + 2-hydroxy-7-methoxy-5-methyl-1-naphthoate + CoA = AMP + diphosphate + 2-hydroxy-7-methoxy-5-methyl-1-naphthoyl-CoA

Other name(s): NcsB2
Systematic name: 2-hydroxy-7-methoxy-5-methyl-1-naphthoate:CoA ligase
Comments: The enzyme from the bacterium Streptomyces carzinostaticus is involved in the attachment of the 2-hydroxy-7-methoxy-5-methyl-1-naphthoate moiety of the antibiotic neocarzinostatin. In vitro the enzyme also catalyses the activation of other 1-naphthoic acid analogues, e.g. 2-hydroxy-5-methyl-1-naphthoate or 2,7-dihydroxy-5-methyl-1-naphthoate.
